Tordenskjold i Marstrand 1847 - 1938

This black and white illustration "Tordenskjold i Marstrand" was created by Danish artist F. Hendriksen between 1847 and 1938. The work depicts a scene from the life of the Danish naval hero Niels Juel, showing him in Marstrand, Sweden, during the 17th century. Hendriksen's meticulous line work brings to life the period costumes and the architecture of the scene, capturing the dramatic moment as Juel, accompanied by three soldiers, looks up towards a figure in a window. "Tordenskjold i Marstrand" is currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, Denmark.
