This pencil sketch by Nicolai Abildgaard, titled "En vinget genius, svævende over en klode, angivet med et par cirkelbuer," features a winged figure, likely a genius, floating above a sphere, possibly symbolizing the earth. Created between 1743 and 1809, the drawing demonstrates Abildgaard's skill in capturing movement and form with minimal detail. The work is housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark and measures 201 mm in height and 235 mm in width. The artwork showcases Abildgaard's interest in classical mythology and the exploration of idealized human form.
