Figurengruppe teilweise kniender oder kauernder (_) Gestalten 

This preliminary sketch, "Figurengruppe teilweise kniender oder kauernder (_) Gestalten," was created by German artist Victor Müller, who was born in 1830. The piece, currently housed in the Städel Museum, depicts a group of figures in a dynamic pose, some kneeling and some crouching, captured with loose and gestural lines. The artist's focus on capturing movement and form over precise detail suggests it was likely intended as a study for a larger composition. This drawing provides a glimpse into the artist's process and the early stages of his creative development.
