"Niels Klim hyldes af Qvamiterne, der bringer ham gaver og knæler for ham" is an engraving by Danish artist J.F. Clemens, created between 1786 and 1788. The scene depicts a group of Qvamiterne, fictional inhabitants from Ludvig Holberg’s satirical novel *Niels Klims underjordiske Rejse*, kneeling before Niels Klim, offering him gifts and expressing their adoration. The engraving's detailed lines and dramatic composition effectively convey the scene's reverence and awe. This artwork, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, offers a visual interpretation of Holberg's literary work, enriching the understanding of this important Danish cultural text.
