Eine Mutter II (A Mother II)

About this work

This black-and-white print shows a busy riverside scene. A woman stands on a balcony, leaning over a wooden railing while a child clings to her. Below, two men talk near a boat, and another person sits on the dock, hunched over. The water is choppy, and buildings line the far side, with a sign reading "Deutsche Kunst." The artist used sharp lines and textures to show light and shadow, making the scene feel real. This style was common in etchings of the time.
