"Notater" is a blank sketchbook by Danish artist L.A. Schou, dating back to 1864-1867. This small, intimate artwork, housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, offers a glimpse into the creative process of a young artist. The blank pages, now filled with Schou's delicate pencil sketches and notes, stand as a testament to his artistic journey and his commitment to capturing the world around him. The sketchbook is a window into the artist's personal thoughts, sketches, and inspirations.
