"Afskedsscene ved et skib; En mand der drager sit sværd overfor en kvinde," is an etching by Danish artist Meno Haas, created in 1803. The artwork depicts two scenes: one of a man and woman embracing on a ship's deck with a crowd of onlookers, the other of a man drawing his sword in front of a woman as others look on. It's a dramatic depiction of a farewell scene, likely drawing inspiration from a play or literary work of the time. This print, now held at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, exemplifies the detailed and emotional style of etching prevalent in the early 19th century.
