Scenebillede fra Johan Herman Wessels "Kærlighed uden Strømper" 1772 - 1782

This drawing by Danish artist Peter Cramer, titled "Scenebillede fra Johan Herman Wessels "Kærlighed uden Strømper"", depicts a scene from the play "Love Without Stockings" by Johan Herman Wessel. Dating back to 1772-1782, the artwork captures the essence of Danish Rococo theatre through its light, playful brushstrokes and the use of pen and ink on paper. The image features three figures: a woman adorned with a lavish feathered hat, a man in a flowing coat, and a child holding a piece of fabric. The drawing, housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, demonstrates the artistry of Peter Cramer and his ability to capture the vivacity and humor of the Danish theatre scene.
