Illustration med herre og dame i landskab 1799

"Illustration med herre og dame i landskab" is an engraving by Danish artist Georg Christian Schule, created in 1799. The artwork, held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a man and a woman in a rural landscape, suggesting a scene from a play or a literary work. The man, dressed in a military uniform, gestures towards the woman, while the woman, holding a basket, stands in a composed manner. This work exemplifies the artistic trends of the late 18th century, particularly in its depiction of everyday life and its emphasis on clear and expressive lines. Schule, a prominent artist of his time, specialized in engravings, contributing to the development of this art form in Denmark.
