About this work

A pen and ink drawing with light watercolour washes shows a witch with a headscarf leaning over a row of cooking pots set above flames. Several small children sit in the pots, shown in distress, while steam rises above them. German rhyming verses appear along the bottom edge. The work is attributed to Wilhelm Busch and dated 1870-80, and its title is Die Bestrafung der unartigen Kinder (Max & Moritz).
