Hello,

This is an original black ink drawing by Helmuth Uhrig, a 20th-century German religious artist, signed and dated 1958. Uhrig was known for his ecclesiastical illustrations and contributions to modern liturgical art in Germany. The subject matter, featuring stylized biblical figures and abstract theological symbolism, aligns well with Uhrig’s characteristic minimalist and spiritually resonant visual language.

The drawing is executed on thin, onion-skin-like paper, which, though delicate, was commonly used for draftwork and religious pamphlets in mid-century liturgical art. While the sheet shows visible signs of aging, including foxing (brown age spots), the integrity of the ink and compositional clarity remain intact. The signed work measures approximately 15 by 9 inches and is mounted on a larger 18 by 24-inch sheet. Uhrig’s works are rarely seen in private markets, as most are preserved in ecclesiastical archives, museums, or collections related to sacred modernism, giving this example a degree of rarity.
