Bordeaux set fra floden 1639

"Bordeaux set fra floden" (Bordeaux seen from the river) is a pen and ink drawing by Danish artist Bodan I, created in 1639. The drawing, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a panoramic view of Bordeaux, France, from the river. The artist uses delicate lines to capture the cityscape, with emphasis on the city's towers and spires, and the river's gentle flow. The foreground showcases figures on the riverbank, adding a human element to the otherwise tranquil scene. Bodan I's work is characterized by his precise and detailed style, evident in this artwork.
