Skovparti ved en sø 1865

"Skovparti ved en sø" (Woodland by a Lake) is a pencil sketch by Danish artist P.C. Skovgaard, created in 1865. The work is a delicate and detailed depiction of a tranquil landscape featuring a lake surrounded by lush trees. Skovgaard's signature style is evident in the precise rendering of the foliage and the subtle shading used to create depth and atmosphere. The sketch is a prime example of Skovgaard's exploration of natural motifs and his appreciation for the beauty of the Danish countryside. Currently housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, the artwork is a testament to Skovgaard's artistic mastery and his profound connection to the natural world.
