Jonas Umbach's drawing, "Einzug der Tiere in die Arche Noah" (Entry of the Animals into Noah's Ark), portrays a scene of bustling chaos as a multitude of animals, including an elephant and birds flying overhead, gather at the entrance of Noah's Ark. This meticulous depiction, characteristic of German Baroque art, highlights the biblical tale of the Great Flood and serves as a cautionary reminder of God's power and the importance of faith. The drawing, located in the Städel Museum, is a testament to Umbach's meticulous draftsmanship and his ability to capture a dynamic moment in a complex narrative.
