"Die Eltern" (The Parents) is a poignant and evocative lithograph created by the renowned German artist Käthe Kollwitz in 1922-23. Kollwitz, known for her powerful depictions of human suffering and social injustice, created this work as part of her series "War" (Krieg), which reflects the profound grief and devastation caused by World War I. The series, consisting of seven woodcuts, is one of Kollwitz's most significant contributions to 20th-century art, capturing the harrowing impact of war on individuals and families.

"Die Eltern" specifically portrays the intense sorrow of parents mourning the loss of their child, a theme that resonated deeply with Kollwitz, who lost her own son, Peter, in the war. The lithograph features two figures, a mother and a father, enveloped in a somber and intimate embrace. The mother's face is buried in her hands, while the father, with a stoic yet anguished expression, supports her. The composition is stark and minimalistic, emphasizing the raw emotion and the heavy burden of grief.

Kollwitz's use of lithography in "Die Eltern" allows for a rich, textured quality that enhances the emotional depth of the piece. The monochromatic palette and the careful attention to line and form create a sense of immediacy and intimacy, drawing the viewer into the personal tragedy of the depicted figures. This work, like much of Kollwitz's oeuvre, serves as a powerful anti-war statement and a tribute to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable loss.

"Die Eltern" remains a significant work in the history of art, not only for its technical mastery but also for its profound emotional impact. It continues to be studied and admired for its ability to convey the universal experience of grief and the enduring consequences of war.
