Kathe Schmidt Kollwitz (1867 - 1945) "Gedenblatt fur Karl Liebknecht"
Kathe Kollwitz (German, 1867–1945) Print of Etching, piece measures 7 x 9 and 17 x 19 inches w/frame, titled "Gedenblatt fur Karl Liebknecht, 1920" Kollwitz created this image as a response to the murder of Karl Liebknecht, a Communist leader who helped lead an armed revolt against the Socialist government in January 1919. He was assassinated by right-wing paramilitary units. Kollwitz's composition is based on traditional Christian lamentation scenes, thus placing Liebknecht in the role of martyr. The artist paid special attention to the dignity and pathos of Liebknecht’s working-class followers, who had put their hope and faith in him. Kaethe Kollwitz was born in Koenigsberg, East Prussia in 1867. The family name was Schmidt, and they were cultivated, middle class people who considered a talent to be a duty. Her art education began in 1881; she began studying with Rudolph Mauer, a local engraver. At seventeen, she enrolled in the School for Women Artists in Berlin. Her early studies, which reveal a developing social consciousess, depicted workers engaged in manual labor. In 1885, she became engaged to a medical student, Karl Kollwitz, who was also a member of the Social Democratic Party. Over the next fifty years, her husband's practice exposed her to an even wider range of suffering and tragedy.
