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.
ReplyDeleteI 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!
