"By a Shipyard. Copenhagen Harbour," an 1838 drawing by Danish artist Anton Melbye, depicts a detailed view of a ship being repaired in Copenhagen's bustling harbor. The meticulous detail and delicate lines characteristic of Melbye's style are evident in the depiction of the ship's rigging, the surrounding shipyard, and the figures working diligently. This drawing, now housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, offers a glimpse into the daily life of Copenhagen's maritime industry during the 19th century.
