Student 1807

Johannes Senn's "Student" (1807) is a watercolor painting on paper that depicts a young man in military uniform. The figure stands at attention, holding a rifle and wearing a black hat with a plume. The work is a classic example of military portraiture, a genre that was popular in the 19th century, and is housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst. The painting's simple composition and realistic depiction of the subject's attire and pose make it a valuable historical document.
