Taushed og troskab bekranser det slesvigske vaaben 1748 - 1831

"Taushed og troskab bekranser det slesvigske vaaben" is a pencil drawing by Danish artist J.F. Clemens, created between 1748 and 1831. The artwork depicts a heraldic design featuring a shield, a man holding a spear, a woman, and a dog. The design likely references the coat of arms of Schleswig, emphasizing loyalty and silence through the figures' gestures. Clemens's drawing is a delicate study for a larger sculptural piece, showcasing his meticulous attention to detail. The drawing is currently part of the collection at the Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen.
