This pen and ink drawing, titled "Szene aus dem Dreißigjährigen Krieg (_)_ Im Vordergrund ein Erschlagener, drei davonziehende, plündernde Soldaten in der Tracht des 17. Jahrhunderts", by German artist Theodor Alt, depicts a scene from the Thirty Years' War. The drawing captures the brutality of the war with a focus on a fallen soldier in the foreground. Three soldiers in 17th-century garb, one on horseback, stride past the dead body, highlighting the indifference and cruelty of the conflict. The drawing, now housed in the Städel Museum, exemplifies Alt's talent for capturing historical moments with a raw, emotive style.
