The moving artist 

"The Moving Artist" by Gottlieb Welté, a German painter active in the late 18th century, is a watercolor depicting a group of figures in transit. The work, likely a genre scene, showcases the artist's talent for capturing the everyday lives of ordinary people. The scene's composition, with its varied figures and objects, creates a sense of movement and activity. It was likely a popular subject in Welté's time, appealing to a wide audience through its humor and the artist's observational detail. The Städel Museum, where this work is housed, offers a glimpse into the artist's artistic practice.
