Die Wandlungen Gottes

Ernst Barlach

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a German text arranged in a list format. The text is written in a elaborate Gothic or blackletter typeface and appears to be a numbered list titled "Blattfolge". The list is organized vertically, with numbers from 1 to 7 followed by phrases such as "Der erste Tag," "Die Dome," "Der göttliche Bettler," "Totentanz," "Gott Bauc," "Die feven," and "Der liebente Tag." The background is a neutral shade, allowing the bold black text to stand out prominently.
