En ung kone som rekonvalescent 1899

"En ung kone som rekonvalescent" (A Young Wife as a Convalescent) is a pencil drawing by Danish artist Christen Dalsgaard, created in 1899. The work depicts a young woman sitting in a chair, possibly recovering from an illness, while a child reaches out to her. A woman in the background can be seen through an open door, holding a bowl and spoon, suggesting the woman in the foreground is being cared for. This delicate drawing, now housed in the Statens Museum for Kunst, captures a tender moment of domesticity and care. Dalsgaard, known for his realism and genre paintings, masterfully conveys the intimacy of the scene.
