"Knud Kruse. Fisker" is a pencil drawing by Danish artist Martinus Rørbye created in 1833. The artwork depicts a man, Knud Kruse, standing in a simple pose, wearing a striped shirt and waistcoat, and a tall hat. The drawing is characterized by Rørbye's meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the depiction of the man's clothing and features. It is a fine example of Rørbye's work, known for capturing the everyday lives of ordinary people, and offering insight into the social and cultural life of Denmark in the early 19th century. This small-scale drawing (243mm x 152mm) is currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
