"Kniende Frauen und Obstflückerin" (Kneeling Women and Fruit Picker) is a charcoal drawing by German artist Ludwig von Hofmann. The piece depicts a group of women in a wooded landscape, with one woman in the center holding a basket of fruit. The drawing is characterized by its expressive lines and stark contrasts, which create a sense of depth and movement. Hofmann's work was often influenced by Symbolism and Jugendstil, and this drawing is no exception. The mysterious figures and the idyllic setting evoke a sense of longing and the sublime, a common theme in Symbolism. The work is held in the Städel Museum.
