The Far Right forced Kollwitz to resign her professorship & she started on her Death Cycle including The Call of Death (self-portrait), Young Girl in the Lap of Death & Death Seizing a Woman (1934). It’s hard not to see these as symbolic of the collapse of German civilisation

Kollwitz created her three most famous posters - Germany’s Children Starving (1924), Bread (1924) & Never Again War (1924) at a time when Germany was collapsing after the Great War. It was a time of crisis & children were the great artist’s concern

Not sure if it counts as a painting since it’s line etching but definitely “woman with a dead child” by Käthe Kollwitz. Her depictions of death, corpses and emotions feel so real and just sad. She experienced so much death in her life and didn’t even got to see the end of the war

tw: death, gore, horror

This etching by Käthe Kollwitz haunts me since I saw it as a teen.
The way the mother tries to hold her child as close as possible desipte it being long beyond saving speaks to such unfathomable grief.

Wonderful, horrible thread, by the way. https://t.co/sXwQ8jo6uc

"I felt that I have no right to withdraw from the responsibility of being an advocate. It is my duty to voice the sufferings of humanity, the never-ending sufferings heaped mountain-high." -Käthe Kollwitz
