"Ein großer Zug von Männern zu Fuß und zu Pferde durch eine Felsschlucht" (A Large Train of Men on Foot and Horseback through a Rocky Gorge) is a drawing by Johann Albrecht Dietzsch (1720-1782) housed at the Städel Museum. The work depicts a scene of a crowded, winding group of men and animals traversing a rocky landscape under a stormy sky, possibly depicting a biblical scene such as the Exodus or a military campaign. The detailed and textured lines in the drawing create a sense of movement and depth, further emphasizing the grandeur of the scene and the vastness of the landscape. Dietzsch was known for his drawings and paintings of landscapes and biblical scenes, and his work is often characterized by its realism and dramatic use of light and shadow.
