This watercolor by Georg Melchior Kraus depicts the ruined Liebfrauenkirche in Mainz, Germany, following its bombardment by French forces in 1793. The artwork captures the devastation of the church, with its damaged roof and partially collapsed tower. This somber scene showcases the destructive power of war and the enduring impact of historical events.
