Engelsk dans i København 1807

"Engelsk dans i København" (English Dance in Copenhagen) is a watercolor painting by Johannes Senn, created in 1807 and currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst. This intimate scene captures a lively social gathering in Copenhagen, with men and women elegantly dressed, participating in a popular English dance. The artwork's small size (204 mm x 242 mm) allows for a focused portrayal of the social dance, highlighting the clothing and expressions of the participants.
