This anonymous drawing from the 17th or 18th century, housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a bishop and two nuns at an altar. The bishop, holding a staff, appears to be healing a possessed woman in the background. The artist used pen and ink to create this detailed and expressive depiction of a religious scene. This drawing demonstrates the artistic trends of the period, with a focus on realistic representation and the use of light and shadow.
