Blyantsskitse af mand set fra ryggen 1833

This pencil sketch, "Blyantsskitse af mand set fra ryggen" (Pencil sketch of a man seen from behind), was created in 1833 by Danish artist Martinus Rørbye, known for his detailed and sensitive portrayals of everyday life. The sketch, housed at the Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark, is a quick study of a man in simple attire, seen from the back, likely captured during Rørbye's travels or observations. This small-scale work, characteristic of his quick sketches, demonstrates his keen eye for capturing the human form. The sketch is an example of Rørbye’s attention to detail and his ability to capture a moment in time.
