Studienblatt_ Phantasie und Figurengruppen 

This preliminary sketch by German artist Max Slevogt, titled "Studienblatt_ Phantasie und Figurengruppen", is a study for a larger composition. The drawing features a winged figure holding a long branch with leaves, a reclining figure, and several other figures in the lower portion of the page. Slevogt’s dynamic lines and expressive use of watercolor foreshadow his distinctive style of painting. This work, currently housed in the Städel Museum, offers a glimpse into Slevogt's creative process and the development of his unique artistic vision.
