Mandsprofil og skystudie med farveangivelser 1825 - 1826

This pencil sketch by Danish artist Martinus Rørbye (1803-1848) is titled "Mandsprofil og skystudie med farveangivelser," which translates to "Man's profile and cloud study with color notes." It depicts the profile of a man alongside a series of clouds. The artist also provided annotations on color, possibly as a visual reference for future paintings. This work showcases Rørbye's meticulous attention to detail and the subtle beauty he found in everyday subjects. This small study, now housed in the SMK – Statens Museum for Kunst, is a testament to the artist's dedication to capturing the world around him.
