Interior with Figure 1941

"Interior with Figure" (1941) by Niels Larsen Stevns, painted in the year of his death, is a powerful example of his late style. The painting showcases a figure in a dimly lit interior, rendered in bold, expressive brushstrokes. The use of contrasting black and white creates a sense of depth and isolation, emphasizing the figure's solitude. The composition is dynamic, with the figure appearing partially obscured, creating a sense of mystery and intrigue. The painting is housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst and measures 51.5 cm x 67.7 cm.
