Joseph Hirsch was a realist painter whose work was often socially oriented and imbued with humanism. During World War II, he served as an artist-correspondent for the U.S. government.

His monumental images celebrate ordinary people and situations, reflecting his belief that “any painting that has to do with life is a commemoration.” (Hirsch, Recent Paintings and Drawings: May 28-June 13, 1980, Exhibition Catalogue, 1980).
