Wiesental bei einer Brücke mit einer Häusergruppe 

Karl Franz Kraul, a German painter born in 1754, created this picturesque watercolor landscape, titled "Wiesental bei einer Brücke mit einer Häusergruppe." The artwork depicts a tranquil valley with a winding road leading to a small village. The bridge over a stream at the base of the hills adds a charming detail to the scene. The overall composition creates a sense of calm and serenity typical of the Romantic movement, with the emphasis on nature and the sublime. This piece, now housed in the Städel Museum, exemplifies Kraul's talent for capturing the beauty of everyday life through detailed observation and masterful use of color.
