Figurskitser 1879 - 1910

"Figurskitser" (Figure Sketches) is a collection of drawings by Danish artist Oluf Hartmann, created between 1879 and 1910, currently housed at the Statens Museum for Kunst. The small, intimate drawing, executed on paper, features a series of rapid and expressive sketches of human figures, likely studies for larger works. The artist’s loose and gestural lines capture the movement and energy of the human form, showcasing his interest in capturing the essence of his subjects. Hartmann's sketches are a testament to his artistic process, highlighting his keen observation of the human form and his ability to distill complex compositions into simple yet evocative lines.
