Løse skitser af skibe 1902 - 1903

This pencil sketch by Niels Larsen Stevns, titled "Løse skitser af skibe," depicts a series of ships on the sea. Created between 1902 and 1903, the artwork features quick, gestural lines that capture the movement and form of the ships. The artist's emphasis on the ships' smokestacks and the churning waters suggests a focus on the energy and dynamism of maritime travel. The sketch is a testament to Stevns's keen observation and ability to capture the essence of his subject matter in a few simple strokes. "Løse skitser af skibe" is currently on display at the Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, Denmark.
