This pencil drawing by Danish artist Lars Møller, titled "Fire mænd med trækslæder gående ved en gletcherspalte ("Sermime kûp Kordlornerssua")", depicts a dramatic glacial crevasse in Greenland. The artwork, created between 1878 and 1879, showcases Møller's detailed depiction of the icy landscape, emphasizing the scale and power of nature. The small figures of men pulling sledges add a sense of human scale to the vastness of the scene, highlighting the challenges of navigating such a harsh environment. This drawing, now in the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, offers a glimpse into the natural beauty and perils of Greenland in the late 19th century.
