Liggende kvinde ved fort 1765 - 1833

"Liggende kvinde ved fort" (Reclining Woman by a Fort) is an etching by Danish artist Gerhard Ludvig Lahde, created between 1765 and 1833. The artwork features a woman reclining on a cannon wheel in the foreground, gazing towards a fort in the distance. The composition is simple yet evocative, capturing a moment of quiet contemplation against a backdrop of military presence. The etching's delicate lines and subtle shading contribute to its melancholic and introspective tone. This work exemplifies Lahde's skill in capturing human emotion within a specific historical and geographical context.
