Egeus, der über die Hochzeit Hermias spricht, mit Hut und Schwert c. 1867 - 1868

"Egeus, der über die Hochzeit Hermias spricht, mit Hut und Schwert" is a pencil drawing by German artist Paul Konewka, dated c. 1867-1868. The work, now housed at the Städel Museum, depicts a figure of a man, possibly Egeus from Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream," in a theatrical pose, holding a sword and wearing a feathered hat. The drawing's simple, gestural lines create a sense of movement and energy, characteristic of Konewka's style, known for its expressive depictions of literary and theatrical themes.
