En neapolitansk fiskerfamilie ved stranden 1840

"En neapolitansk fiskerfamilie ved stranden" (A Neapolitan Fishing Family by the Beach) is a pen and ink drawing by Danish artist Martinus Rørbye from 1840. The drawing captures a moment in the life of a family of Neapolitan fishermen, depicted in a loose and expressive style. Rørbye’s sketch captures the essence of a family’s life by the sea, utilizing hatching and cross-hatching to convey the light and shadow of the scene. The work is held at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen.
