About this artwork
The charcoal drawing shows a gaunt man with downcast gaze – a picture of quiet forlornness. The oversized sweater seems not to warm him, but to weigh him down, as if he were carrying a burden greater than himself. His shoulders slump, his gaze is lowered, his face only vaguely visible, yet full of melancholy. It is a posture of exhaustion – physical and mental. Thelen's lines are sparse, but full of empathy: no stroke is arbitrary, every contour… contributes to the intensification of the mood. The figure does not appear remote, but consumed by worry, as if he has withdrawn into himself because the world outside has become too loud, too heavy, too much.

Hjalmar Thelen (1962–2017) was a Berlin painter and draftsman who made the unspectacular visible: faces, places, and everyday scenes. His works—on paper, cardboard, or canvas—are direct, concentrated, and characterized by quiet precision. Without academic training, but with a clear eye and a delicate touch, he created over 2,000 works. His art is quiet, figurative, narrative—and characterized by respect for what is depicted. His studio was his apartment, but he most enjoyed traveling by bicycle, armed with a field easel and paints, along Berlin's canals, rivers, and lakes.
