Den store marine på Capri 1836

"Den store marine på Capri" is a pencil drawing by Danish artist Christen Købke, created in 1836. This delicate work depicts a picturesque scene of the Italian island of Capri, showcasing the artist's keen eye for detail and ability to capture the beauty of the natural world. The drawing showcases a calm bay with several boats pulled up on the shore. The shoreline is defined by a dramatic cliff and a building nestled at its base, with a range of mountains in the background. Købke's masterful use of line and shading creates a sense of depth and realism, drawing viewers into the scene. This artwork, now held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, exemplifies Købke's artistic style, which was known for its precision and attention to detail.
