Studier af figurer fra vægdekoration (italiensk). Notat 1900 - 1905

This watercolor study by Danish artist Niels Larsen Stevns, created between 1900 and 1905, is a preliminary sketch for a larger decorative work. The study depicts a figure in a yellow robe with a striped garment underneath, set against a blue background. The decorative elements surrounding the figure suggest a potential mural or wall decoration. The work, housed in the Statens Museum for Kunst, showcases Stevns' interest in Italian art and the historical details he incorporated into his designs. The artist's meticulous attention to detail in capturing the figure's form and the surrounding ornamentation is evident in this small-scale study.
