This pencil sketch by Victor Müller depicts three different poses of a woman swinging an axe in a forest. The work, titled *Bewegungsfolge einer im Walde eine Axt (_) schwingenden Frau*, is a study in motion, capturing the dynamic energy of the woman's movements as she wields the axe. The minimalist style of the drawing emphasizes the figure's form and gesture, allowing the viewer to focus on the fluidity and power of her actions. The composition, divided into three sections, showcases the progression of the woman's swing from start to finish, suggesting a sequence of movement rather than a singular moment in time. This drawing, housed in the Städel Museum, is a testament to Müller's keen eye for capturing the human figure in action.
