Painting Description
Die Kindsmörderin (The Child Murderess) is a powerful and evocative sculpture created by the German expressionist artist Ernst Barlach in 1922. This work is part of Barlach's broader exploration of human suffering and social injustice, themes that pervade much of his oeuvre. Cast in bronze, the sculpture portrays a woman in a moment of profound agony and despair, reflecting the intense emotional and psychological turmoil associated with her act of infanticide.
The sculpture is heavily influenced by Barlach's expressionist style, characterized by exaggerated features and stark, emotive forms that convey a deep sense of tragedy and humanity. Die Kindsmörderin is considered one of Barlach's most significant works, encapsulating his ability to blend form and content to evoke a strong emotional response from the viewer. This piece not only reflects the social issues of Barlach's time but also engages with timeless themes of maternal bond, guilt, and societal judgment.
Die Kindsmörderin is often discussed in the context of Barlach's critical perspective on German society post-World War I, a period marked by economic hardship and moral questioning. The sculpture's raw emotional intensity and its grim subject matter invite viewers to reflect on the desperation and isolation faced by individuals at the margins of society. As such, it remains a poignant commentary on the human condition and a critical artifact of expressionist art.
