Lindetræ 1836 - 1839

"Lindetræ" (Lime Tree) is a pencil drawing created by the Danish artist Christen Købke between 1836 and 1839. This artwork showcases Købke’s meticulous attention to detail and his fascination with nature. The drawing depicts a single, bare lime tree standing against a pale background, highlighting the tree's skeletal structure and the delicate lines of its branches. It is a prime example of Købke's mastery of depicting the beauty and serenity of Danish landscapes. The drawing is currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, Copenhagen, Denmark.
