Skitsebogsblad med siddende ung mand og studie af en sko 1842

This pen and ink sketch by Johan Thomas Lundbye, dated 1842, depicts a seated young man, a study of a shoe, and a chair, perhaps from a sketchbook. The relaxed figure and simple lines create a sense of informality, reminiscent of the artist's focus on everyday life. The sketch's immediacy and focus on detail are characteristic of Lundbye's style, which captured the beauty of the ordinary. The work is currently held at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
