"Luise Scholderer reading" is a pencil drawing by Otto Scholderer, a German artist born in 1834. The drawing, housed in the Städel Museum, portrays Luise Scholderer, likely a family member, seated and engrossed in reading. The artist's focus on subtle details and the relaxed posture of the subject suggest a personal connection and intimate moment captured. The composition and loose lines of the drawing characterize it as a realist work, capturing a simple yet evocative scene from daily life.
