This 1844 illustration by Danish artist Lorenz Frølich, titled *Illustration til Adam Oehlenschlägers digt "De to kirketårne"*, depicts a scene from the Danish poet Adam Oehlenschläger's poem *The Two Church Towers*. The pen and ink drawing shows a knight in armor, possibly leaving his home with his horse, as he is met by a woman and children. The detail and delicate lines create a sense of realism, highlighting the everyday life of the time period. The drawing is a fine example of the Romantic artistic style, using imagery to evoke emotional response and illustrate literary works.
