"Twee figuren kijkend naar een kruis" (1923) is a graphite drawing by German Expressionist artist Erich Wichmann (1890-1929). The work depicts two figures, likely representing a priest and a congregation member, gazing upwards towards a crucifix in the upper right corner of the composition. The figures are stylized and simplified, suggesting a focus on spiritual contemplation and the power of faith. This drawing reflects the Expressionist movement's exploration of emotional intensity and spiritual themes. The stark lines and minimal details create a sense of awe and reverence. The drawing's small size further emphasizes its intimacy and personal nature.
