Wilhelm Busch's 1871 ink drawing, *Der Bizeps wird zuerst geübt,* depicts a humorous figure engaged in an exaggerated weightlifting exercise. The man's massive bicep is emphasized, while his thin legs and awkward posture create a comical effect. Busch's artwork reflects his characteristic style of satire and social commentary, often utilizing caricature and absurdity to address human foibles. This drawing, now part of the Städel Museum collection, exemplifies his knack for capturing the ludicrous side of everyday life.
