Engel befrier den fængslede Petrus 1816 - 1852

"Engel befrier den fængslede Petrus" is a pencil drawing on paper by Danish artist Dankvart Dreyer, created between 1816 and 1852. The artwork depicts a scene from the Bible, where an angel frees Saint Peter from prison. Dreyer's drawing is a delicate study of the figures, with an emphasis on their expressive gestures and poses. The composition is well-balanced, with the figures positioned in a dynamic arrangement that creates a sense of drama and tension. The drawing is currently part of the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, Denmark.
