Blad til "Dagens flue" 1946

"Blad til "Dagens flue"" is a 1946 ink drawing by Danish artist Robert Storm Petersen (1882–1949). The drawing features a single, caricatured figure depicted in a comical and slightly unsettling manner, with a large hat, exaggerated features, and a tattered, oversized coat. The figure’s worn and ragged appearance suggests a life of hardship, further emphasized by the sparsely depicted rural background. The drawing's stark lines and expressive style characterize Petersen's satirical approach to societal observations, often focusing on social commentary and humor. This drawing is a fine example of the artist's unique and recognizable style.
