Frise med to rækker dansende amoriner 1743 - 1809

"Frise med to rækker dansende amoriner" is a pen and ink drawing by Danish artist Nicolai Abildgaard (1743-1809). This sketch, created sometime between 1743 and 1809, features two rows of dancing cherubs, or amorini, demonstrating Abildgaard's mastery of form and movement. The simplicity of the lines and the lively poses of the figures capture the playful nature of the amorini, a common motif in Baroque and Rococo art. This preparatory drawing, now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, likely served as a study for a larger work, showcasing Abildgaard's meticulous approach to his art.
