Tre mænd på en trappe, der fører ned til vandet, hvor der ligger en robåd med en fisker 1803 - 1848

This pencil sketch titled "Tre mænd på en trappe, der fører ned til vandet, hvor der ligger en robåd med en fisker" (Three Men on a Staircase Leading Down to the Water Where There is a Rowboat with a Fisherman) was created by Danish artist Martinus Rørbye between 1803 and 1848. The work is a simple yet evocative portrayal of everyday life, a scene likely from the artist’s travels. The composition features a group of figures, possibly men of leisure, looking down at a fisherman in his boat. The sketch, now held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, exemplifies Rørbye's ability to capture the essence of a moment in a quick and effortless manner.
