Mannen, vrouwen en kinderen in Marker klederdracht 1875

This pencil sketch by George Clausen, titled “Mannen, vrouwen en kinderen in Marker klederdracht”, depicts figures in traditional Marker clothing. Executed in 1875, it showcases Clausen's observational skills and his interest in capturing the essence of everyday life. The loose and expressive lines suggest a quick study, perhaps made outdoors. The composition is simple, featuring several figures arranged across the page. The artist's emphasis on the clothing details and the lack of a background highlight the importance of the figures themselves.
