Konen skreg... 1928

"Konen skreg..." (The Woman Screamed) is an ink drawing by Danish artist Fritz Syberg, dating back to 1928. The artwork, housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a chaotic scene inside a home, likely a kitchen. The drawing's expressiveness captures the frenzy of the moment, conveyed through quick, gestural lines. The figures are sketched in a loose and dynamic style, emphasizing the emotion of the event rather than precise detail. Syberg's use of hatching and cross-hatching creates a sense of depth and movement, adding further energy to the composition. The artwork's small dimensions, 247 mm x 339 mm, contribute to its intimate and intense nature.
