155 L. Müller – Das letzte Stückchen Brod (The Last Piece of Bread) – Colored Lithograph (19th Century)

This poignant 19th-century colored lithograph by L. Müller depicts a melancholic scene of a man sitting on a simple bed in a modest room, sharing his last piece of bread with a large dog sitting faithfully at his feet. The sparse interior is detailed with artistic tools such as an easel, paint palettes, and canvases, suggesting the man is an artist or craftsman. The composition captures a moment of humility, companionship, and hardship, emphasizing themes of poverty and loyalty. The print bears the artist’s name in the lower right corner and was published in Vienna by Anton Paternoster.
L. Müller was an Austrian lithographer and printmaker active during the 19th century, known for his detailed and expressive genre scenes. His works often reflected social realities and emotional narratives, combining careful draftsmanship with the innovative lithographic technique that enabled rich color and tonal variation.
