"En sovende mand" (A Sleeping Man) is an etching by Georg Mathias Fuchs, created in 1774. The print depicts a man asleep in a chair, his head resting on his arm. The details of the man's clothing and the chair are rendered in a realistic style, conveying a sense of intimacy and quietude. Fuchs, a Danish artist known for his portraits and genre scenes, effectively captures the moment of repose in this small but powerful work. The etching is held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, showcasing the museum's comprehensive collection of Danish art.
