Pregnant Woman Contemplating Suicide (recto) Three Studies of a Child (verso)

Käthe Kollwitz

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows two sketches. The left sketch features a woman in a long dress and head covering, standing in front of a body of water with her right hand on a railing and her left hand to her face. The background includes a building on the left. The woman appears to be looking down. The right sketch shows three studies of a child. One child sits on someone's lap, another child sits on the right, and a third study of a child is above them. The sketches are drawn in pencil on off-white paper with visible pencil marks and smudges.
