Portretten van drie scheepslieden c. 1848 - 1854

"Portretten van drie scheepslieden" (Portraits of Three Sailors), a pencil sketch by Christian Heinrich Gottlieb Steuerwald, depicts three men in various poses. The work, created between 1848 and 1854, is characteristic of Steuerwald's style, capturing the likeness of his subjects with a direct and unpretentious approach. The sketch's focus on everyday figures offers a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people during the mid-19th century.
