Notat vedrørende Børglum Kloster. Udskrift af Pontoppidans Danske Atlas 1933 - 1934

Here we have Niels Larsen Stevns' "Notat vedrørende Børglum Kloster. Udskrift af Pontoppidans Danske Atlas," and right away, I'm drawn to the intimacy of this small page. It feels like a secret, a personal excavation of history recorded with ink on paper. The handwriting, its rhythm and flow, feels like a direct connection to the artist’s hand, to his thoughts unfolding. Look closely at the way the letters loop and connect, how some lines are dark and bold, others almost disappearing. It's like a dance, a choreography of thought. This isn’t just writing; it’s a drawing, a visual poem. The density of the script creates a texture, a field of marks that almost obscures the words themselves. It reminds me a bit of Cy Twombly, or even some pages by Leonardo, where the act of writing becomes a form of art in itself. Stevns invites us to consider art as a form which embraces ambiguity, to get lost in the beauty of language, and the echoes of time.
