Untitled 1915

"Untitled" (1915) by J.A. Jerichau (II) is a large-scale oil painting showcasing abstract forms and vibrant colors. It depicts a complex scene, possibly a mythological or allegorical narrative, with figures intertwined in a swirling composition. The fragmented and expressive brushstrokes evoke a sense of movement and energy, characteristic of the artist's short but impactful career. The painting, now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, is a testament to Jerichau's contribution to Danish modernism, tragically cut short by his untimely death in 1916 at the age of 26.
