"Chassid in Gedanken" (English: "Hasid in Thought") is a painting by Isidor Kaufmann, an Austro-Hungarian realist painter known for his portraits and depictions of Jewish life in Eastern Europe during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Kaufmann, born in 1853 in Arad, then part of the Austrian Empire, received his artistic education at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna and became a prominent member of the Viennese art scene.

The painting "Chassid in Gedanken" is a fine example of Kaufmann's work, showcasing his meticulous attention to detail, his ability to capture the inner life of his subjects, and his deep respect for the Jewish tradition. The artwork features a Hasidic Jew in a moment of contemplation or prayer, reflecting the spiritual introspection characteristic of Hasidic Judaism. Kaufmann's subject is typically depicted with a sense of dignity and a profound inner focus, often surrounded by religious texts or situated in a setting that emphasizes the importance of study and devotion in Hasidic culture.

Kaufmann's paintings are celebrated for their ethnographic accuracy and their sensitive portrayal of Eastern European Jewish communities. "Chassid in Gedanken" is no exception; it provides a window into the world of its subject, with a level of detail that suggests the artist's intimate familiarity with the clothing, customs, and religious practices of his subjects. The painting is executed with a palette that evokes a sense of warmth and reverence, further enhancing the viewer's engagement with the figure's contemplative state.

"Chassid in Gedanken" is part of Kaufmann's broader body of work that has been instrumental in documenting a way of life that was dramatically altered by the events of the 20th century, including the Holocaust. Kaufmann's works are held in high esteem and can be found in various art collections, museums, and galleries around the world, serving as a cultural and historical record as well as a testament to his skill as a portraitist and a painter of Jewish life.
