This pencil drawing titled "The Three Fates" by Gustav Heinrich Naeke depicts the three goddesses of fate from Greek mythology, Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos. Naeke, a German artist working in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, rendered the figures in a classical style, emphasizing their nudity and flowing drapery. The figures are arranged in a semicircle, their postures suggesting a sense of action and deliberation. The drawing is housed at the Städel Museum.
