"Plantestudie" is a pen and ink drawing by Danish artist Niels Larsen Stevns, created between 1906 and 1910. The artwork, currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a detailed study of oak leaves. Stevns, known for his meticulous observation of nature, captures the intricate veins and textures of the foliage with expressive lines and shading, highlighting the beauty and complexity of the natural world.
