I like the diversity of this painting. The clothing is colorful and bohemian. The figures seem very kind and cheerful. Nice to see an image from happier times. I like th3 freedom of your lines and brush strokes.

thank you- this group wore European clothes when at Leipzig University. Some didn't, but I think because of their President and Mrs President being from the city! and the usual white female students hovered around!

I see you managed to get a group of people. I know how quick you have to be when doing sketches of people. I used to be a court artist. The courtroom was constantly changing and moving, but I had to get drawings in for the newspaper and tv quickly. You have done a fantastic job with the composition, colors, and details. Nice story to go with it.
