Puck (_) mit geflügeltem Fuß sowie Puck (_) mit Flügeln und der Zauberblume c. 1867 - 1868

This pencil drawing by German artist Paul Konewka depicts two figures of Puck, a mischievous fairy from English folklore. Created between 1867 and 1868, the piece showcases Konewka’s masterful use of line and shading to capture the whimsical nature of the subject matter. One Puck is shown in mid-flight, wings spread wide, while the other stands with a single wing emerging from his leg. The figures are rendered with a sense of movement and energy, capturing the essence of Puck's playful character. This delicate sketch is a testament to Konewka’s talent for illustrating fantastical creatures, a recurring theme throughout his artistic career.
