Dyreskitse 1900 - 1905

"Dyreskitse" (Animal Sketch) is a pencil drawing on paper by Danish artist Niels Larsen Stevns, created between 1900 and 1905. This small-scale artwork, housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, captures a quick, gestural study of an animal, likely a bird or a mammal, in Stevns' characteristic loose and expressive style. The drawing's simplicity and immediacy highlight the artist's focus on capturing the essence of form and movement through minimal lines. It offers a glimpse into the artist's creative process and provides insight into his working methods.
