Udkast med to figurer til Frigørelsesrelieffet til Frihedsstøtten 1790 - 1793

This preliminary sketch, titled "Udkast med to figurer til Frigørelsesrelieffet til Frihedsstøtten," was created by Danish artist Nicolai Abildgaard between 1790 and 1793. It's a study for a relief sculpture intended for the Freedom Monument, featuring a seated female figure holding a branch and a standing male figure. The sketch exhibits Abildgaard's characteristic Neoclassical style, with clear lines and balanced composition. This preparatory work reveals the artist's process and artistic vision for a monumental piece of public art.
