En mand der knæler, set bagfra med en stav i hånden. En stående mand set i profil med en stav i venstre hånd 1872

This pencil sketch by Danish artist P.C. Skovgaard, dated 1872, captures the essence of human form and movement. The artwork depicts two figures, one kneeling with a staff in hand and the other standing with a staff in their left hand. This intimate study, likely a preparatory sketch for a larger work, exemplifies Skovgaard's keen eye for detail and his ability to convey human presence through simple lines. The sketch is housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, a testament to Skovgaard's significant contribution to Danish art.
