"Illustration til Svend Grundtvig, "Marsk Stig: Dansk Folkevise Fra 13de Aarhundrede"" is an 1861 illustration by Danish artist Constantin Hansen, now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst. This black and white drawing depicts a scene from the Danish folk ballad "Marsk Stig," set in a forest with two figures - a woman and a man - the man holding a sword. The illustration is a fine example of Hansen's distinctive Romantic style, focusing on narrative and emotional depth. Its detailed rendering of the figures and the forest setting bring the ballad to life.
