"Måneskinsaften ved Tubæk" (Moonlight Evening at Tubæk) is a black and white etching created by Cilius Johannes Konrad Andersen between 1865 and 1913. The artwork, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a serene moonlit scene with a windmill silhouetted against the night sky. The moon’s reflection shimmers on the water, adding a touch of luminescence to the otherwise darkened landscape. This piece showcases Andersen's mastery of capturing the atmospheric beauty of the Danish countryside.
