Geigender Genius auf einer Wolke, von Engel umgeben 

This preliminary drawing by Johann Baptist Scholl the Younger depicts a central figure, likely an angel, playing a violin while surrounded by other angelic figures. The artist has utilized a gridded paper, indicating the preparatory nature of this work. This study, likely intended for a larger composition, showcases the artist's skill in capturing the anatomy and movement of the human form through delicate linework. The subject matter, a celestial scene with musical elements, is typical of Scholl the Younger's work, demonstrating his interest in the themes of harmony and divine inspiration. This drawing, housed at the Städel Museum, offers a glimpse into the creative process of the artist, revealing the meticulous planning and craftsmanship involved in the creation of his finished artworks.
