This 1844 pen-and-ink drawing by Danish artist Dankvart Dreyer depicts two tombstones with the coat of arms of Anders Glob, a Danish provost and church warden in Odense, Denmark. The design features a heraldic eagle and an inscription at the bottom that reads "D.M. 1528". The drawing was made in preparation for a larger artwork, possibly an oil painting, of the tombs. The tombstones, created in 1528, are located in the church of St. Canute's in Odense. The artist's careful attention to detail is evident in his depiction of the intricate carvings on the tombstones. This work exemplifies Dreyer's interest in historical and architectural subjects.
