En dyretæmmer med kamel, aber, bjørne mm. 1792 - 1875

"En dyretæmmer med kamel, aber, bjørne mm." (Danish for "An animal tamer with a camel, monkeys, bears, etc.") is a watercolor by Johann Adam Klein, a Danish artist known for his detailed animal depictions. Created between 1792 and 1875, the artwork captures a scene from a traveling menagerie, showcasing the tamer's skill in handling exotic animals. The image depicts a camel with two monkeys riding on its back, a group of bears, and a band of musicians. The artwork’s small size, 216 mm by 266 mm, and its focus on detailed animal portraits suggest a focus on intimate, personal observation. The watercolor is currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, a Danish national museum, and showcases Klein's mastery of this medium.
