"Døden går bort med barnet" (Death Takes the Child Away) is a pen and ink drawing created in 1901 by Danish artist Fritz Syberg (1862-1939). The artwork depicts a figure, possibly a mother, carrying a child, their faces obscured, as they walk into a vast, open space. The drawing's loose, gestural lines and the dark, undefined forms create a sense of foreboding, leaving the viewer with a feeling of uncertainty about the figures' fate. Currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, this artwork is an example of Syberg's expressive style and his interest in the human condition, particularly themes of mortality and loss.
