In 'Anguish' (1878) by August Friedrich Albrecht Schenck, a mother sheep mourns over her dead lamb. She stands protectively over her lamb, defying the threatening crows that encircle it. Blood seeps from the lamb's mouth into the snow, and the mother sheep's breath forms ghostly puffs in the cold air. Despite her bravery, the scene exudes a sense of hopelessness.  🐑  A notable aspect of the painting is the mother sheep's distinctly human-like expressions of determination and sorrow. These emotions vividly express her helplessness. The ominous crows, deemed 'ill-fated,' gather around, waiting for a vulnerable moment to attack the lamb. Through this animal metaphor, the artist also depicts a universal human experience. 🎨  #painting #oilpainting #famousartists #arthistory #art August Friedrich, Ap Drawing, Mother Painting, Sheep Paintings, Academia Aesthetics, Coffee Wallpaper, Human Experience, Famous Artists, The Snow
