This etching by Danish artist Andreas Flint, titled "Kong Christian den fjerde på skibet Trefoldigheden i Søslaget ved Femern," depicts a dramatic scene from the Battle of Fehmarn in 1644. The composition captures the chaos and confusion of the battle, focusing on the moment when the Danish King Christian IV is on the ship "Trefoldigheden" during a fierce naval battle. The dark, atmospheric print, executed in a 19th-century style, emphasizes the intensity and danger of this historical conflict. The artwork, now housed at the SMK – Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, provides a glimpse into a pivotal moment in Danish history.
