The King of Thule

Moritz von Schwind

Cleveland Museum of Art

The King of Thule by Moritz von Schwind: A sketch on tan paper, with a grid drawn in pencil, featuring a group of people in a scene. The group consists of several men. A man sits on the left side, on a curved platform, with his right arm resting on a box-like object. To the right, another man stands with his right hand raised and his left hand on another man's shoulder. Behind them, a woman stands on a raised platform, with her hands clasped. The background features arched windows or doorways. The artist's signature is in the bottom-left corner. The paper has a rough edge and several dark spots.
