Studie af G. Siboni efter D. Monies maleri (1838) på Frederiksborg 1930 - 1938

This graphite drawing, created between 1930 and 1938 by Niels Larsen Stevns, is a study of a painting by D. Monies, titled "Studie af G. Siboni." The drawing, housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, captures a portrait of Siboni in a dynamic, upside-down perspective. The loose, expressive lines and hatched shading create a sense of movement and energy, characteristic of Stevns' artistic style. This study exemplifies the artist's practice of drawing from life, utilizing sketches to explore and capture the essence of his subject.
