"Blank" is an artwork by Danish painter Martinus Rørbye (1803-1848) dating to 1832. Currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, this small-scale work, measuring 107 mm by 179 mm, is a blank page from a sketchbook. Its simplicity invites viewers to contemplate the nature of art and the creative process, potentially foreshadowing the artist's future works.
