A haunting and evocative work by Gerhard Richter, *Bridge 14 Feb 45 (I)* references the devastating Allied bombing of Dresden on February 14, 1945, a tragedy with deep personal resonance for the German artist. The piece reflects Richter's ongoing exploration of history, memory, and trauma, blurring the boundaries between documentation and abstraction. True to his practice, the work interrogates how images mediate our understanding of catastrophic historical events.
