Rejsedagbog 1845

"Rejsedagbog" (Travel Diary) is a small-scale artwork by Johan Thomas Lundbye, a Danish painter known for his depictions of rural life. Created in 1845, this piece is a bound journal containing handwritten entries in Danish, offering a glimpse into Lundbye's personal experiences and observations during his travels. The delicate script and the detailed descriptions of his surroundings provide insight into the artist's keen eye for detail and his interest in the natural world. This artwork, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, is a valuable historical document that sheds light on Lundbye's life and artistic practice.
