Die beiden Türme Garisenda und Asinelli in Bologna 1924

"Die beiden Türme Garisenda und Asinelli in Bologna" is a 1924 ink and wash drawing by German artist Hermann Lismann. The artwork depicts the two famous leaning towers of Bologna, Italy, with a distinct architectural style. Lismann captures the unique perspective of viewing the towers from a street level, highlighting their imposing presence against the backdrop of a cloudy sky. This work showcases Lismann's talent for capturing the essence of urban landscapes. The use of ink and wash provides a sense of depth and detail, creating a sense of realism while also incorporating stylistic elements characteristic of the early 20th century. The work, currently housed in the Städel Museum, is a testament to Lismann's artistic talent and his fascination with architectural structures.
