"Salomes dans" is a pencil sketch created in 1920 by Danish artist Karl Isakson, known for his expressive line work and depiction of human figures. This preliminary drawing, held at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, captures a scene likely inspired by the biblical story of Salome, known for her dance before King Herod. The composition is characterized by gestural lines and a sense of movement, giving a glimpse into Isakson's creative process, as he explores the dramatic interplay of figures within the scene.
