This photo reproduction of an 1878 drawing, likely titled "Gretchen (dolorosa)", shows a woman in period dress kneeling in sorrow amidst a garden setting. The anonymous artist has captured the woman's grief through her slumped posture and the scattered flowers surrounding her. The work's title, "Gretchen (dolorosa)", suggests a connection to the character of Gretchen from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's "Faust". This photograph was likely part of a larger series depicting scenes from "Faust", a popular literary work of the time.
