Two Studies

A mural, done properly, requires lots of sketches and preliminary studies to determine structure and tonal values, as well as composition. These are but two studies for a mural by Ludwig Zaiser back around 1910. It's unlikely that the mural itself survived two world wars.

The play of shadows and lights expertly designed makes this study very powerful.
I didn't know Ludwig Zaiser, thank you Thomas! :)

Zaiser is just one of many many many most of us have never known. More such to come!
