Udkast til "Kristus velsigner de små børn" 1937 - 1938

This sketch, titled "Udkast til "Kristus velsigner de små børn"", is a preliminary study for a larger work by Danish artist Niels Larsen Stevns. Created in 1937-1938, it showcases a dynamic and expressive style, typical of Stevns' artistic approach. The drawing, executed in black ink, features a central figure likely representing Christ, with other figures in the background suggesting a composition of children. The rough lines and gestural marks hint at the artist's rapid and intuitive process of capturing the scene, highlighting the emotional impact of the subject matter. This piece provides a fascinating glimpse into the creative process of a well-respected Danish artist.
