Skitse til samme figur som på recto 1743 - 1809

"Skitse til samme figur som på recto" (Sketch for the same figure as on recto) is a pencil drawing by Danish artist Nicolai Abildgaard, created between 1743 and 1809, the years of his lifetime. The artwork, which is a simple sketch of a seated nude figure, likely served as a preparatory study for a larger work. It is currently held in the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen. The drawing's delicate lines and subtle shading reveal Abildgaard's keen understanding of human anatomy and his commitment to artistic realism. This small-scale work, measuring 171 mm by 178 mm, highlights the artist's mastery of draftsmanship and his meticulous approach to capturing the human form.
