Russische Bauern beim Wasserholen an der Quelle 1898

Wilhelm Amandus Beer's 1898 watercolor, "Russische Bauern beim Wasserholen an der Quelle," depicts a group of Russian peasants gathering water from a spring. The painting showcases the artist's talent for capturing the details of everyday life, particularly in rural settings. The depiction of the peasants in their traditional attire and the simple, yet evocative scene, offers a glimpse into the daily routines of Russian villagers in the late 19th century. The painting is currently housed in the Städel Museum.
