Anton Radl's "Die Ruine Hubertuskapelle bei Bergen" is a detailed pen and wash drawing of the ruins of the Hubertuskapelle near Bergen. The artist, born in 1774, captures the crumbling walls and overgrown vegetation, creating a sense of melancholy and decay. The central arched doorway leads the viewer's eye into the interior, where a single figure sits amongst the ruins, adding a human scale to the scene. The ruined chapel is rendered with precise detail, showcasing Radl's skill in capturing the subtle variations in light and shadow. This work showcases Radl's interest in the romantic aesthetic of ruins, a popular subject in the 19th century. The artwork is currently housed in the Städel Museum.
