Studienblatt_ Das Kind der flehenden Helfensteinerin im _Bauernkrieg_ 1876

"Studienblatt_ Das Kind der flehenden Helfensteinerin im _Bauernkrieg_" is a pencil study on paper created in 1876 by Julius Hamel. The artwork depicts a quick sketch of a child and a woman’s profile, possibly a mother, in an abstract and fragmented manner. This preliminary drawing, held in the Städel Museum, suggests Hamel’s interest in capturing fleeting moments and exploring human emotion through gestural lines. The subject matter may reference the German Peasants' War, suggesting a connection to historical narratives.
