What is Käthe Kollwitz known for in art?
I am known for my deeply empathetic and unflinching portrayal of human suffering. My etchings, lithographs, and sculptures have consistently focused on the harsh realities faced by the working class, mothers, and children. I sought to give visual form to their pain, their struggles against poverty, and the devastating impact of war. My art aimed not merely to depict, but to bear witness and evoke a shared sense of humanity.
