The Artist,

Käthe Kollwitz

German-born Käthe Kollwitz used her prints and sculptures to confront social injustice and suffering.
Black ink drawing on yellow-beige ground of the head and shoulders of an adult woman. She frowns, looks to her left, and holds her right hand up to her right temple. Her hair is pulled back and she wears a dark garment.
