"Kristus og Nikodemus" (Christ and Nicodemus), an 1834-1836 pencil drawing by Danish artist Christen Købke (1810-1848), depicts a scene from the Gospel of John. This intimate composition, housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, showcases Købke's skill in capturing the solemnity of a religious encounter. The work is characterized by its delicate lines and subtle shading, conveying a sense of reverence and spiritual contemplation. The viewer is drawn into the scene, observing the meeting of Christ and Nicodemus, a prominent Jewish leader, in an intimate and peaceful setting. This drawing is an excellent example of Købke's early work and his talent for portraying biblical narratives with both sensitivity and realism.
