About this work

A dark, anthropomorphic raven stands on a dirt path in a hazy, golden-green landscape, looking down at a small object held in its wing. A second bird perches on a branch at left and another flies across the warm evening sky, while a distant village with a church steeple sits on the horizon. Carl Spitzweg's painting Der Rabe, dated 1845, is held by the Bavarian State Painting Collections.
