Rastende vor zerklüftetem Felsgebilde 

Franz Kobell's "Rastende vor zerklüftetem Felsgebilde" (Resting in front of a rugged rock formation) is a pen and ink drawing depicting a landscape scene with figures. It is known for its detailed and realistic portrayal of nature, particularly the craggy rock formations and the lush vegetation. Kobell, a renowned landscape artist, captured the grandeur and beauty of the natural world through his meticulous attention to detail. This drawing showcases the artist's mastery of line and shading, creating a sense of depth and texture. While the figures are small in scale, they add a sense of human presence to the scene, suggesting a moment of contemplation or rest within the vastness of nature. The drawing exemplifies the romanticism and artistic values prevalent in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
