Orestes forfulgt af erinyerne 1814

"Orestes forfulgt af erinyerne" (Orestes Pursued by the Furies) is a pen drawing by C.G. Kratzenstein Stub, a Danish artist active in the early 19th century. This work depicts the Greek mythological scene where the Furies, the vengeful spirits of retribution, pursue Orestes after he murders his mother Clytemnestra, and the scene is filled with dramatic tension. Stub’s skilled use of line and shading creates a sense of movement and energy, further emphasizing the terror that Orestes experiences. The artwork can be viewed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen.
