Figurgruppe 1864 - 1867

"Figurgruppe" (1864-1867) is a pencil sketch by Danish artist L.A. Schou, known for his portraits and figure studies. The sketch, housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a group of figures in a loose, gestural style characteristic of Schou's work. The drawing's small size and unfinished nature suggest it may have been a study for a larger composition. Schou tragically died at the young age of 29, leaving behind a significant body of work that captures the vibrancy of Danish artistic life in the mid-19th century.
