Notes |
This is the final version of the third plate from the series 'A Weavers' Revolt', 1893-97. The series is related to Gerhart Hauptmann's controversial play 'Die Weber', published in 1892, which recounts the uprising of impoverished Silesian weavers in 1844. Kollwitz's attendance at the first performance of 'Die Weber' in February 1893 inspired her to create the series, which parallels but does not directly illustrate the play. Two earlier versions of 'Conspiracy' in etching and lithograph (Knesebeck 28 and 29) were discarded by Kollwitz in favour of this final composition. For additional literature, see Elizabeth Prelinger, 'Käthe Kollwitz', Washington National Gallery of Art exh cat, 1992, pp. 21-25; F. Carey and M. Egremont, 'Portrait of the Artist: Käthe Kollwitz' (Birmingham, Ikon, 2017) pp. 64-65

[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. ![]() |
