"Studier af bjerglandskab ved hav" (Studies of Mountain Landscape by Sea) is a pencil sketch by Niels Larsen Stevns, created between 1900 and 1904. The artwork, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a distant mountain range viewed from a low angle. The lines, primarily horizontal, convey the vastness of the landscape, creating a sense of scale and tranquility. The simple yet expressive strokes are characteristic of Stevns's approach to capturing natural scenes, emphasizing the essence of the subject with minimal detail.
