Amtmand, Kammerherre Jens Andreas Graah (1787-1873) 1836 - 1838

Christen Købke’s "Amtmand, Kammerherre Jens Andreas Graah (1787-1873)" is a pencil drawing that depicts a serene landscape scene. The artwork, created between 1836 and 1838, showcases Købke’s mastery of detail and his ability to capture the tranquility of nature. The drawing features a prominent oak tree framing the composition, its branches extending towards the viewer, and a distant view of a body of water, likely a fjord. Købke’s attention to detail is evident in the meticulously rendered foliage, the winding road, and the small figures in the distance. This work exemplifies the Danish Golden Age of painting and is considered one of Købke’s finest landscape drawings.
