Portrait, Kaulbach

Leicester Museums received a set of nine drawings by von Kaulbach in 1926. They were thought to be illustrations to a story.  They are numbered so we know the order in which they should be viewed but we do not know what the story is. If you have any information, please get in touch with us at germanexpressionism@leicester.gov.uk

The third scene shows a couple in what appears to be some distress whilst they are sat by a baby’s crib. Whatever the girl has told the man seems to have shocked him and he has to reach out to the table to steady himself.
