"Kniender Armbrustschütze aus dem Rasenden Roland des Ariost" (Kneeling Crossbowman from Ariosto's "Orlando Furioso") is a pencil drawing created by Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld in 1825. This study, currently held in the Städel Museum, depicts a figure in the act of aiming a crossbow, capturing a moment of intense action from the epic poem "Orlando Furioso" by Ludovico Ariosto. The drawing displays Schnorr von Carolsfeld's mastery of anatomical detail and his ability to convey movement and emotion through precise lines. This artwork showcases the artist's fascination with historical subjects and his skill in capturing the energy and drama of narrative.
