"Die Traurige Botschaft" (English: "The Sad Message") is a 19th-century painting by Austrian artist Peter Fendi. Created in 1838, the artwork is a poignant example of Biedermeier period art, which is characterized by a focus on the intimate, the sentimental, and the middle-class life. Fendi, known for his genre paintings, portraits, and lithographs, captures a moment of personal grief and human emotion in this work.

The painting depicts a woman who has just received a letter, presumably bearing bad news, given the title of the piece. Her expression and posture convey a deep sense of sorrow and despair. The setting is domestic and unassuming, reflecting the Biedermeier interest in the private sphere and the emotional lives of individuals. The attention to detail in the woman's attire and the furnishings of the room are indicative of Fendi's skill in rendering textures and his sensitivity to the nuances of everyday life.

"Die Traurige Botschaft" is held in high regard for its fine execution and its ability to evoke empathy in the viewer. The painting is part of the collection of the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere in Vienna, Austria, which houses a significant number of works from the Biedermeier era. Fendi's contribution to Austrian art through his portrayal of the human condition in "Die Traurige Botschaft" and other works remains an important aspect of his legacy.
