Italienere uden for et osteri 1835

"Italienere uden for et osteri" (Italians outside an Inn) is a pencil drawing by Danish artist Martinus Rørbye, dated 1835. The drawing depicts a lively scene outside an inn in Italy, with a group of men and women gathered around a table, likely enjoying food and drink. Rørbye's attention to detail and use of light and shadow capture the atmosphere of everyday life in Italy. The inscription on the building, "Osteria con cucina," indicates it is an inn with a kitchen, suggesting the convivial nature of the gathering. The drawing is housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst (National Gallery of Denmark), and serves as a snapshot of 19th-century Italian life through the lens of a Danish artist.
