En stående og en siddende mand 1825 - 1826

"En stående og en siddende mand" is a pencil sketch by Danish artist Martinus Rørbye, created between 1825 and 1826. The artwork, currently housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts two men, one standing with his hand outstretched and the other sitting in a chair. Rørbye's characteristically delicate lines and subtle shading give the figures a sense of movement and immediacy, capturing the fleeting moment of a conversation or encounter. This sketch exemplifies Rørbye's talent for capturing the essence of human interaction through informal and intimate portraiture.
