Bjergene ved Ravello 1920 - 1924

"Bjergene ved Ravello" (The Mountains near Ravello), a delicate pencil sketch by Gudrun Traustedt, captures a fleeting moment in the Italian landscape. Dated between 1920 and 1924, this small-scale work, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, showcases Traustedt's sensitive approach to capturing the natural world. The artist, known for her expressive drawings, evokes the mountainous terrain with loose, gestural lines, suggesting the foliage and distant peaks. The inclusion of a solitary figure adds a sense of scale and invites contemplation of the beauty of the scene.
