This exquisite piece belongs to a series of illustrative portraitures of phenomenal  women artists.

Here's a painting inspired by the German Expressionist, Käthe Kollwitz, capturing melancholy, suffering and loss of human life that one usually finds in her iconic paintings, prints, woodcuts and sculptures. The painting with a mourning man, devoid of colors, tries to represent her ideas about universal human experiences and matches her concerns with depicting the stark reality of war and its victims; the blue rose being symbolic of sensitivity.
