This anonymous drawing, titled "Moses," depicts the biblical figure in a contemplative pose, likely studying the Ten Commandments on a stone tablet. Created between 1600 and 1700, the work demonstrates the artist's skilled use of shading and line to capture Moses' weathered features and solemn expression. The drawing is a testament to the enduring power of religious imagery, showcasing the importance of biblical narratives in art during this period. The drawing is currently housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, Denmark.
