Udkast til Guldskat 1865 - 1870

"Udkast til Guldskat" (Draft for Gold Treasure) is a pen-and-ink drawing by Danish artist Lorenz Frølich, dating from 1865-1870. The artwork, housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a scene of a couple escaping through a doorway while an older man, possibly a shopkeeper, watches them. The composition, characterized by loose, expressive lines, captures a sense of urgency and intrigue, suggesting a story of clandestine activities or theft. This sketch, measuring 110 mm x 132 mm, is a testament to Frølich's masterful use of line to convey narrative and emotion.
