Franz Hochecker, a German artist born in 1730, created this sepia drawing of a ruined building. A path leads through the structure toward a river that cuts through the landscape. Several small figures, including peasants and a pack animal, are depicted traveling along the path, adding a sense of scale and human presence to the scene. The drawing's muted tones, careful details, and picturesque composition highlight the romanticism of the ruins, a popular motif in 18th-century art. This work, currently housed in the Städel Museum, exemplifies the artistic sensibilities of the period and provides a glimpse into the rural landscapes of the time.
