The drawing that Karl Marx is supposed to represent

The drawing by Heinrich Rosbach, a fellow student in Trier, who later became a doctor, botanist and draftsman, is said to be Karl Marx's first illustration . In 2017, Constantin Cnyrim donated a 4 × 7 cm pencil drawing from the estate of Heinrich Rosbachs to the Trier City Museum Simeonstift . It will be exhibited for the first time from May 5, 2018 in the great Marx exhibition. It has not yet been decided whether this assumption will come true. The drawing has only a distant resemblance to the drawing by David Levy Elkan which is entitled "1836" and a group of students in front of the "White Horse". in Godesberg shows. "Rossbach (Veitel) Medizinalrath in Trier" is named by Schneider with the number "19" on the back. Eberhard Gockel could not prove the inn in Godesberg.
