"Ornament des Nick Bottom als Pyramus" (c. 1867 - 1868) is a graphite drawing by German artist Paul Konewka. This simple yet expressive drawing depicts an intricate pattern of interwoven lines that may have been intended for a stage design or illustration. Konewka, known for his illustrations for plays and literary works, may have created this drawing as a potential visual element for a production of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, as the title suggests. The work is currently held in the Städel Museum.
