Figurstudie til maleriet af landsretssagfører Niels Thorup, siddende på et havebord 1941

Edvard Weie's "Figurstudie til maleriet af landsretssagfører Niels Thorup, siddende på et havebord" is a preparatory study for a larger painting of the Danish lawyer Niels Thorup. The 1941 pencil drawing shows Thorup's figure seated in a relaxed pose, captured in a simplified and geometric style. Weie's work is noted for its sensitivity to light and shadow, and this study demonstrates his focus on form and structure through a series of delicate lines. The sketch is part of the collection of SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, offering a glimpse into the creative process of a prominent Danish artist.
