Illustration nr. 2 til "L`Amour et Psyché" 1862

This 1862 pen and ink drawing by Danish artist Lorenz Frølich, titled "Illustration nr. 2 til "L`Amour et Psyché", depicts a scene from the myth of Cupid and Psyche. The drawing's intricate details and delicate lines evoke the beauty and drama of the story, with a central figure of a woman, possibly Psyche, standing atop a tree, surrounded by other figures and a background of classical architecture. This work, currently located at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, exemplifies Frølich's artistic skill and his ability to translate literary narratives into visual art.
