Den hellige Agnes knælende 1671 - 1738

"Den hellige Agnes knælende" (The Holy Agnes Kneeling) is a red chalk drawing by Hendrik Krock, created between 1671 and 1738. It is a study for a larger painting, highlighting Krock's attention to detail and the graceful pose of the subject. Agnes, a Christian saint, is depicted in a moment of devotion, her gaze directed upwards. The soft, delicate strokes of the chalk create a sense of tranquility and reverence, reflecting the pious subject matter. This drawing is now housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, Denmark, and serves as a fascinating glimpse into Krock's artistic process.
