Overblik - opdagelse af de kendte steder 1865

"Overblik - opdagelse af de kendte steder" (Overview - discovery of the known places) is a pen and ink drawing created by Danish artist Lorenz Frølich in 1865. The artwork depicts two children, a boy and a girl, sitting on a hilltop and looking out at a distant landscape. The girl is pointing at the horizon, where the sun is setting, suggesting a sense of wonder and discovery. The detailed lines and hatching create a sense of realism and depth in the drawing, highlighting the beauty of the natural world. This small-scale work, currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, exemplifies Frølich's skill in capturing both the innocence of childhood and the awe-inspiring nature of the world.
