"Ein verwundeter Hirsch sucht Labung an einem Gebirgssee" (A Wounded Stag Seeks Relief at a Mountain Lake) is a watercolor painting by Johann Erdmann Gottlieb Prestel, a German artist born in 1804. The painting, currently housed in the Städel Museum, depicts a stag with large antlers standing at the edge of a mountain lake, seemingly in pain. The background features a mountain peak covered in snow, suggestive of a dramatic, alpine setting. This realistic depiction of a stag in a natural environment exemplifies Prestel's focus on detailed animal portrayals and picturesque landscapes.
