Æselkøretøj udenfor Porta del Popolo 1836 - 1840

Wilhelm Marstrand's "Æselkøretøj udenfor Porta del Popolo" is a delicate pencil drawing depicting a donkey cart outside the Porta del Popolo in Rome. Created between 1836 and 1840, the artwork showcases Marstrand's mastery of capturing everyday scenes with meticulous detail. The composition highlights the cart, two figures, and the surrounding architecture, with the use of light and shadow adding depth to the image. This drawing is a fine example of Marstrand's early work, demonstrating his interest in Italian landscapes and daily life. The artwork is currently held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
