Winter 1941

Karl Wiener’s 1941 drawing “Winter” is a stark and somber depiction of a solitary figure in a desolate landscape. The work’s minimalist style emphasizes the figure’s isolation against the stark background of bare trees and a snow-covered field. The use of charcoal creates a sense of cold and emptiness, highlighting the harsh conditions and the subject’s vulnerability. "Winter" is a poignant reminder of the human condition in the face of adversity, it captures the feeling of isolation and despair.
