This portrait study, created by Peder Als between 1720 and 1751, depicts a standing man in a formal pose. The subject is likely an aristocratic figure from the 18th century, indicated by his attire and the prominent display of his "Order of the Elephant" insignia. The drawing's detailed rendering of the man's clothing and the subtle use of shading create a sense of realism and highlight Als's skillful execution. The work is housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, providing a valuable glimpse into 18th-century Danish portraiture and aristocratic life.
