Old Heroes Graves
Gemälde IDENTIFIZIERUNG: 58873
Old Heroes' Graves, (1812, ', ', ', ', ', ', ', '), 49.5 x 70.5 cm. Kunsthalle, Hamburg. A dilapidated monument inscribed "Arminius" invokes the Germanic chieftain, a symbol of nationalism, while the four tombs of fallen heroes are slightly ajar, freeing their spirits for eternity. Two French soldiers appear as small figures before a cave, lower and deep in a grotto surrounded by rock, as if farther from heaven.
