Uden for et hus formaner en præst et ungt ægtepar 1810 - 1873

"Uden for et hus formaner en præst et ungt ægtepar," is a pen-and-ink drawing created between 1810 and 1873 by the Danish artist Wilhelm Marstrand. The artwork depicts a scene outside a house where a young couple is being admonished by a priest. The drawing showcases Marstrand's skillful use of linework to capture the figures' expressions and the detail of the scene. This piece is a characteristic example of Marstrand's style, known for its realistic depiction of Danish life and its emphasis on character and storytelling. Currently housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, the artwork offers a glimpse into the social customs and religious beliefs of 19th-century Denmark.
