"Frau mit totem Kind" (Woman with Dead Child) is a powerful and emotionally charged etching by the renowned German artist Käthe Kollwitz, created in 1903. This work is part of Kollwitz's extensive oeuvre that reflects her unflinching commitment to social commentary and her exploration of themes such as war, poverty, and the human condition. The etching is particularly notable for its intimate portrayal of maternal grief, a subject that Kollwitz revisited throughout her career, drawing on her personal experiences of loss and tragedy.

The image depicts a mother cradling the lifeless body of her child, a scene that resonates with the universal experience of loss and mourning. The composition is stark and the lines are expressive, capturing the raw emotion of the moment. Kollwitz's use of chiaroscuro enhances the dramatic impact of the scene, with the deep shadows and strong contrasts underscoring the depth of the mother's despair.

"Frau mit totem Kind" is often interpreted in the context of Kollwitz's reaction to the social and political turmoil of her time, including the impact of World War I, which claimed the life of her youngest son, Peter. The personal nature of the work, combined with its broader social implications, makes it a poignant example of Kollwitz's artistic legacy and her enduring relevance as a voice for the voiceless.

The etching is held in high regard for its technical mastery and emotional intensity, and it remains one of Kollwitz's most significant and affecting pieces. It is frequently exhibited and studied as a seminal work in the history of printmaking and as a testament to Kollwitz's profound empathy and her dedication to representing the struggles of humanity.
