This expressive color woodcut titled Engel (Angel) by Franz Eggenschwiler features a stylized, abstract winged figure in earthy browns, deep blues, and white tones. The image is rendered with raw, gestural marks, evoking both spiritual symbolism and primal human forms. The textured surface and layered ink application enhance the emotional impact of the composition. Signed and dated 1988, the work reflects Eggenschwiler’s mature graphic style that blends mysticism with modern abstraction.

Franz Eggenschwiler (1930–2000) was a Swiss painter, sculptor, and graphic artist known for his unique fusion of surrealism and expressionism. His works often dealt with spiritual and subconscious themes, expressed through woodcuts, assemblages, and symbolic visual language. Active in both Switzerland and Germany, Eggenschwiler was also a teacher and collaborator with writers and avant-garde musicians. His works are held in major collections such as the Kunsthaus Zürich and the Kunstmuseum Bern.
