Figurskitser 1900 - 1904

This pencil sketch, titled "Figurskitser" (Figure Sketches), was created by Danish artist Niels Larsen Stevns between 1900 and 1904. The drawing, housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, showcases Stevns's exploration of the human form. Executed in loose, gestural lines, the sketch depicts a series of figures in various poses, demonstrating the artist's interest in capturing movement and anatomy. The raw and spontaneous nature of the drawing reflects a common practice of artists at the time, who used sketchbooks for quick studies and as a means of exploring ideas.
