Trægruppe 1810 - 1848

"Trægruppe" (Tree Group) is a pencil drawing by Danish artist Christen Købke, created between 1810 and 1848. This delicate sketch, housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, captures the essence of a group of trees in a simple yet striking manner. Købke's attention to detail, evident in the intricate depiction of branches and foliage, exemplifies his mastery of landscape drawing. The drawing's diminutive size of 151 mm by 181 mm highlights its intimate and contemplative nature. "Trægruppe" represents Købke's early exploration of natural forms, setting the stage for his later, more renowned landscape paintings.
