Stehende Frau mit zwei Bündeln auf dem Kopf, vom Rücken gesehen c. 1771 - 1772

"Stehende Frau mit zwei Bündeln auf dem Kopf, vom Rücken gesehen" is a pencil drawing by Georg Melchior Kraus, a German artist known for his drawings and etchings. This piece, created around 1771-1772, depicts a woman from behind, carrying two bundles on her head. The simplicity of the line work and the focus on the figure's silhouette create a sense of immediacy and informality, typical of Kraus' style. The drawing, now housed at the Städel Museum, offers a glimpse into everyday life in 18th-century Germany, showcasing the artist's keen observation of the human form.
