Vand der skummer for boven 1900 - 1905

"Vand der skummer for boven" is a pencil drawing created between 1900 and 1905 by Danish artist Niels Larsen Stevns (1864-1941). The work, currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a landscape scene using a loose and gestural style. The artist's emphasis on capturing the movement and essence of the subject rather than precise details is evident in the use of short, sketchy lines to represent the foamy water and perhaps the surrounding trees. This drawing exemplifies Stevns's preference for conveying the fleeting nature of light and movement.
