Rübezahl og Bonden 1840 - 1843

"Rübezahl og Bonden" is a wood engraving by Danish artist Andreas Flinch, created between 1840 and 1843. The artwork depicts a scene from Scandinavian folklore, featuring the mythical figure Rübezahl, a mountain spirit, interacting with a peasant. The detailed lines and intricate shading characteristic of Flinch's work capture the mystical atmosphere of the story. This small-scale artwork, now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, showcases Flinch's ability to create compelling narratives through wood engraving.
