Abbate i samtale med en romer 1810 - 1873

Wilhelm Marstrand's "Abbate i samtale med en romer" (1810-1873) is a pencil drawing depicting two figures in conversation. The figure on the left, likely an abbate (Italian for abbot), is seated in a chair while the figure on the right, a Roman, stands. The artist uses simple lines to capture the figures' forms and postures, emphasizing their relaxed and casual interaction. This drawing is a study in human interaction, a characteristic of Marstrand's work. It is currently part of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst collection.
