This artwork, "Blank" by Niels Larsen Stevns, is a blank page from a book. The page, made of aged paper with faint spots, is housed within a brown leather binding, indicating the significance of the book it once resided in. The book, likely created during the 19th or early 20th century, is now held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst. This piece offers a glimpse into the history of books and their role in preserving knowledge and culture. The blankness, however, invites contemplation on the absence of content, emphasizing the potential for stories yet to be written.
