Dyrenes sørejse 1925

"Dyrenes Sørejse" (Animals' Sea Voyage) is a 1925 pen and ink drawing by Danish artist Niels Skovgaard. The small, detailed artwork depicts a boat capsizing in rough seas. A rooster perches atop the mast while a sheep is thrown into the churning waves. The dynamic composition, with its exaggerated lines and sense of motion, captures the drama of the situation, emphasizing the vulnerability of the animals in the face of nature's fury. The work is part of the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen.
