"Studier af fasaner" (Studies of Pheasants) is a collection of sketches by Danish artist Niels Larsen Stevns, created between 1864 and 1941. The sketches, rendered in pencil on paper, depict various poses and perspectives of pheasants, highlighting Stevns' interest in animal anatomy and form. These studies, likely preparatory for larger works, showcase Stevns' meticulous observation and skill in capturing the intricate details of avian subjects.
