Forskellige figurstudier (danske) 1844 - 1846

"Forskellige figurstudier (danske)" is a collection of figure studies by Danish artist Martinus Rørbye, created between 1844 and 1846. The sketch depicts various individuals, each captured in a distinct pose and with varying degrees of detail. Rørbye's signature style is evident in the quick, expressive strokes of his pencil, suggesting a focus on capturing the essence of his subjects rather than meticulous anatomical accuracy. These studies likely served as preliminary sketches for larger paintings, showcasing Rørbye's meticulous observation of human form and movement. The piece is currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
