Landskab med marker og skov 1832

"Landskab med marker og skov" (Landscape with Fields and Forest), a pencil sketch by Danish artist Martinus Rørbye from 1832, depicts a peaceful rural scene. The artwork, housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, showcases Rørbye's talent for capturing the nuances of natural light and detail. The viewer's perspective is from a hill overlooking a field enclosed by a wooden fence, with a small cabin tucked into the edge of a nearby forest. This intimate landscape drawing demonstrates Rørbye's characteristically precise and delicate style, showcasing the simplicity and beauty of everyday life in the Danish countryside.
