Kanonbåde under Als 1849

"Kanonbåde under Als" is an 1849 lithograph by Danish artist Emanuel Larsen (1823-1859). The artwork depicts a scene of several small boats sailing on the water near the island of Als. The boats are rendered in a detailed and realistic manner, with emphasis on the sails and rigging. The sky is filled with fluffy clouds and the sea is textured with fine lines. The artwork exemplifies Larsen's skills in maritime art and his ability to capture the beauty of the Danish landscape. It is now part of the collection at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
