Vinget genius med en sigte 1765 - 1833

"Vinget genius med en sigte" (Winged Genius with a Sieve) is a 19th-century etching by Danish artist Gerhard Ludvig Lahde. The print depicts a winged, nude figure kneeling on a rock and holding a sieve. The figure appears to be sifting sand, symbolizing the artist's creative process and the separation of the essential from the extraneous. This print is housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen. The image reflects Lahde's skills in linework and shading, creating a sense of depth and volume.
