Posten. Illustration til Kaalunds "Fabler for Børn". Se kommentar fra arkkatalog. 1843

"Posten" is an illustration for the book "Fabler for Børn" by Kaalund, created in 1843 by Johan Thomas Lundbye. This pen and ink drawing shows a young boy standing by a well, which is wrapped with straw, as he pumps water. Lundbye was known for his drawings of Danish landscapes and rural life, and his detailed observation of everyday life is evident in this small piece. The illustration is a charming example of his work and captures the simplicity of rural life in Denmark.
