Blank 1846

This blank page, dated 1846, is part of an illustrated sketchbook by Johan Thomas Lundbye, a Danish painter known for his landscapes and depictions of rural life. While the page itself is empty, its presence within the sketchbook, provides insight into Lundbye's creative process, offering a glimpse into the artist's preparation and planning before creating his final works. This sketch is an example of Lundbye's early work, which he created before his untimely death in 1848. This sketchbook is currently housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
