Profilportræt af ung kvinde 1810 - 1873

Wilhelm Marstrand’s “Profilportræt af ung kvinde” is a delicate pencil drawing of a young woman in profile. The artist, known for his portraiture, captures the subject with simple but expressive lines, highlighting her elegant features and the intricate details of her dress. Marstrand's use of graphite creates a sense of both immediacy and intimacy, as if the viewer has stumbled upon a fleeting moment in the artist’s studio. The drawing is a prime example of Marstrand’s talent for rendering both the physical form and the inner essence of his subjects. The artwork is housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst and measures 147 mm x 109 mm.
