Liggende hund 1864 - 1941

"Liggende hund" (Lying Dog) is a pencil drawing by Danish artist Niels Larsen Stevns, created sometime between 1864 and 1941. The drawing, which is currently housed at the Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, depicts a dog in a simple, gestural style. The artist's focus on capturing the animal's form and posture is evident in the work's quick, expressive lines. This drawing is a testament to Stevns' skill as a draftsman and his ability to convey a sense of life and movement through his art.
