"Louger for fulde sejl" (Louger with Full Sails) is a pencil drawing created by Danish artist C.A. Lorentzen between 1746 and 1828. The artwork, housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a louger, a type of sailing vessel, with its sails billowing in the wind. The simple yet detailed drawing captures the elegance and power of the ship, highlighting the importance of maritime trade and the beauty of sailing in the 18th and 19th centuries.
