"Stockholm Slot" is a pencil drawing created in 1846 by Danish artist Martinus Rørbye. This detailed sketch depicts the Royal Palace of Stockholm, Sweden, with a focus on the surrounding square, a statue of King Gustav III, and bustling everyday life. Rørbye's meticulous approach captures the architectural grandeur of the palace and the vibrant activity of the city. The work reflects the artist's interest in capturing scenes of daily life and serves as a valuable historical document of Stockholm in the 19th century. The drawing is currently part of the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark.
