Regn i strædet 1939

"Regn i strædet" (Rain in the Street) is a pen-and-ink drawing created by Danish artist John Christensen in 1939. The work depicts a woman walking through a street with a cluster of people moving in the same direction. Christensen’s loose, expressive lines capture the feeling of a rainy day in the city, with the wet pavement reflecting the streetlights. The drawing is a poignant testament to the artist’s ability to capture the everyday moments of life in a compelling and evocative way. Christensen's work, sadly, was cut short by his untimely death in 1940. This piece is housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
