About this work

A pen and grey wash drawing shows an elderly man reclining on a couch-like bed beneath draped curtains, gesturing toward a group of bearded and youthful men in classical tunics and sandals who gather around him. A seated figure in the foreground leans toward the bed while the others look on attentively. The handwritten German inscription below and the date 1805 appear on the sheet.
