Not on view
Lithograph with bold black lines depicting armored soldiers and rearing horses in battle, above columns of German text reading 'Heldenlied der Spartaner'
Charcoal or lithograph sketch of a rider on a rearing horse, one arm raised, rendered in loose expressive strokes against a white background with gestural marks; cursive signature at lower left.
Lithograph depicting a fallen horse and rider on an open plain, rendered in vigorous dark strokes. The horse rears its head upward while pinning a figure beneath it; a distant horizon and diagonal hatching suggest sky and landscape.
Charcoal or lithograph sketch of a group of horses moving in procession from left to right, accompanied by small human figures, with loosely drawn trees in the background.
Charcoal or lithograph drawing depicting a chaotic cluster of uniformed figures and a fallen horse in the foreground, rendered with vigorous, loose strokes; additional figures and an animal sketched in the background; artist's signature visible at lower right.
Charcoal or lithograph sketch, profile view of a woman with dark upswept hair, seated and looking downward while knitting, rendered in loose expressive strokes on white ground.
Charcoal or lithograph drawing, two uniformed figures crouching over a third person who is slumped on the ground, rendered with vigorous gestural strokes against a loosely sketched dark background.
Lithograph of a uniformed soldier standing at attention and holding a rifle, positioned before a large arched gateway with figures visible in the background, rendered in loose charcoal-like strokes on white paper.
Lithograph in black and white with vigorous crosshatching; a standing figure holds an infant at left while a small child clutches their leg below; crouching figures appear at lower right; a muscular figure in chains and tumbling masses of bodies fill the chaotic background.
Lithograph or engraving with loose, gestural linework; dynamic battle scene at top showing mounted and figures on horseback with raised sword; fallen figures in foreground below; German text in Gothic script fills the center, titled "Jünglingstad in der Schlacht" with verse columns beneath.
Black and white print combining illustration and German calligraphic text. Pen-and-ink style figures of soldiers in exaggerated, dynamic poses frame the borders — charging, falling, and clashing at top, left, and right. A column of German script in Gothic hand occupies the center, with a decorative title in flourished lettering across the top.
Charcoal or lithograph landscape with dramatic stormy sky, dark sweeping clouds dominating the upper left. A lone silhouetted figure stands at lower right amid a flat, open terrain with scattered forms in the foreground. Energetic, gestural mark-making throughout.
Charcoal or crayon drawing of a crowded interior scene, with numerous figures seated around a large table and along benches; loose, gestural linework; natural light enters from a window at upper left.
Black and white lithograph portrait of a bearded man wearing a bowler hat and glasses, seated at a table with hands folded, rendered in bold gestural strokes against a white background.
