Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Sculpture Mother with her Dead Son – centerpiece of what is today a memorial to "victims of war and dictatorship" – in the interior of Neue Wache. Work of Käthe Kollwitz (8 July 1867 – 22 April 1945), a German artist who worked with drawing, etching, lithography, woodcuts, painting, printmaking, and sculpture. Her most famous art cycles, including The Weavers and The Peasant War, depict the effects of poverty, hunger, and war on the working class. Despite the realism of her early works, her art is now more closely associated with Expressionism. Kollwitz was the first woman elected to the Prussian Academy of Arts.
Deutsch: Die Skulptur zeigt eine trauernde Mutter mit ihrem toten Sohn, Käthe Kollwitz widmete sie dezidiert ihrem gefallenen jüngsten Sohn Peter Kollwitz (1896–1914), der expressionistischer Maler werden wollte.
