Kristi opstandelse og den opstandne med kvinderne 1847

This pencil sketch, titled "Kristi opstandelse og den opstandne med kvinderne," was created by Danish artist Martinus Rørbye in 1847. It depicts a figure, likely Jesus Christ, standing in a shroud with a group of figures above him. The drawing, held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, is a study for a larger composition and is a prime example of Rørbye's preliminary artistic process. The sketch's simplicity and emphasis on form highlight Rørbye's skill in capturing the human figure. This preliminary sketch provides insight into Rørbye's artistic development and his interest in religious themes.
