Lette skitser af ko eller kalv 1864 - 1941

"Lette skitser af ko eller kalv" is a series of sketches by Danish artist Niels Larsen Stevns, created between 1864 and 1941. These sketches, housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depict cows and calves in a simple, yet expressive manner. Executed in pencil, the drawings capture the essence of these animals through quick, gestural lines. This work exemplifies Stevns's keen observation of nature and his ability to convey form and movement with economy of means. These intimate studies showcase the artist's practice of sketching as a way to explore and understand his subject matter.
