Kvindestudier 1867 - 1869

Wilhelm Marstrand's "Kvindestudier" is a pencil drawing from 1867-1869 depicting two female figures. The main figure is a woman standing with her back to the viewer and her head down. She is dressed in a long, flowing gown with one shoulder exposed, her hair is up in a bun. The second figure is a woman wearing a headscarf, seen only from the shoulders up. The drawing is a study for a larger painting, demonstrating Marstrand's interest in the human form. This piece, located at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, showcases his mastery of line and detail in capturing the figures' poses and drapery.
