This caricature by Danish artist Nicolai Abildgaard depicts a man walking with a cane. Executed in pen and ink, the drawing highlights the man's exaggerated features, particularly his large nose. The humorous, yet slightly sinister, depiction is characteristic of Abildgaard's style, often using satire and exaggeration to comment on social and societal norms of the time. The work, now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, provides insight into the artist's artistic evolution during his career, which spanned from 1743 to 1809.
