One of this artist's earliest works was an illustration of the revolt depicted in Gerhard Hauptmann's The Weavers. A naked woman with angular features holds up a newborn to the sky in a print by this artist entitled "The Sacrifice," while a spectral female figure floats beneath a raised flag and above a mob in a print titled "Uprising." Both of those lithographs were part of this artist's series War, and this artist's last major series included a depiction of a naked woman and a child struggling with a skeleton and was titled Death. A building with an oculus, known as the New Guard House that sits on the Unter den Linden currently houses this artist's Pieta-inspired sculpture, a war memorial titled Mother with her dead son. This artist also depicted herself and her husband kneeling in grief for their son, who was killed in World War I, in a monument located in the Vladslo German war cemetery. For ten points, identify this German artist, the first woman to be admitted into the Prussian Academy of Arts.
