"Zwei Figuren" (Two Figures) is a notable sculpture created by the German expressionist artist Ernst Barlach. Barlach, who lived from 1870 to 1938, is renowned for his evocative and often somber works that reflect the human condition and the socio-political turmoil of his time. "Zwei Figuren" is emblematic of Barlach's distinctive style, characterized by its emotional depth, simplicity, and powerful form.

The sculpture, created in 1930, depicts two figures in a moment of intimate connection. The figures are rendered with a sense of weight and gravity, typical of Barlach's work, which often emphasizes the spiritual and emotional over the physical. The figures' postures and expressions convey a profound sense of empathy and solidarity, themes that are recurrent in Barlach's oeuvre. This piece, like many of Barlach's works, is carved from wood, a medium that he favored for its organic qualities and its ability to convey warmth and humanity.

"Zwei Figuren" reflects Barlach's response to the socio-political climate of early 20th-century Germany, a period marked by the aftermath of World War I and the rise of fascism. Barlach's work was deeply influenced by his experiences during the war and his subsequent disillusionment with the nationalist fervor that gripped Germany. His sculptures often serve as a critique of war and a plea for peace and understanding.

Despite his acclaim, Barlach faced significant opposition during the Nazi regime, which condemned his work as "degenerate art." Many of his pieces were removed from public collections and destroyed. However, "Zwei Figuren" survived this period of censorship and remains a testament to Barlach's enduring legacy and his commitment to exploring the depths of human emotion and experience through his art.

Today, "Zwei Figuren" is celebrated for its poignant representation of human connection and its reflection of the artist's profound empathy and insight. The sculpture continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance, offering a window into the soul of an artist who sought to capture the essence of humanity in his work.
