"Skorstensfejerne. Prøvetryk til Chr. Winther og M. Rørbye, "25 Billeder for små børn"" is an 1846 lithograph by Adolph Kittendorff. This print is a preliminary proof for a book of illustrations for children, showcasing the artist's talent for capturing everyday scenes in a charming, simplistic style. The image depicts two chimney sweeps carrying their tools in a snowy town square. This artwork is a prime example of Danish art of the 19th century, focusing on social realism and capturing scenes from everyday life. The print is currently held at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark.
