Dreng med hænderne over hovedet, set fra ryggen 1848

Christen Dalsgaard's "Dreng med hænderne over hovedet, set fra ryggen" is a graphite drawing created in 1848. This simple yet striking composition depicts a young boy, viewed from behind, with his hands raised above his head. Dalsgaard, a Danish artist known for his masterful realism, captures the boy's youthful form with a keen eye for detail, focusing on the natural lines of the body. This drawing is a poignant example of Dalsgaard's ability to convey emotion through his artwork, suggesting a sense of vulnerability and innocence within the boy's pose. The drawing is currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark.
