Studienblatt_ Professor einer arabischen Universität und Zuhörer 1879

"Studienblatt_ Professor einer arabischen Universität und Zuhörer" (1879) by Wilhelm Gentz is a pencil drawing depicting a professor lecturing to students in an Arab university. The work is a study, likely preparatory for a larger painting, as evident in the loose lines and unfinished details. Gentz focuses on the figures, capturing the professor's gestures and the students' attentive postures. The drawing captures a moment of intellectual exchange and a glimpse into the artist's interest in diverse cultures. The work is housed at the Städel Museum.
