Smedien i Hornbæk 1880s

"Smedien i Hornbæk" is a lithograph created by Danish artist Adolph Kittendorff in the 1880s. This artwork, now housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a blacksmith's workshop in Hornbæk, Denmark. The scene features three men working diligently, with the central figure striking a piece of metal on an anvil. Kittendorff's use of detail and light captures the intensity of the blacksmithing process, drawing the viewer into the dimly lit workshop. This lithograph, measuring 286 mm by 402 mm, is a testament to Kittendorff's keen observation of everyday life and his ability to translate it into art.
