This drawing shows a dark, jagged scene with sharp lines and heavy shadows. A lone figure stands in the center, holding what looks like a long pole or stick. Behind them, twisted buildings and a moon loom over a rough landscape—everything feels uneven and tense. The title says "Flusslandschaft," which means "river landscape" in German, but the water is barely visible here. The artist used quick, sketchy strokes to make it feel urgent and unsettled. If you like this style, look up lithography to see how artists create prints like this.
