Pige med kurv på hovedet 1893 - 1895

"Pige med kurv på hovedet" (Girl with a basket on her head) is a charcoal drawing by Danish artist L.A. Ring, created between 1893 and 1895. The artwork, currently housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a figure in profile, suggesting a focus on capturing the essence of a specific individual. Ring's signature style, marked by loose, expressive strokes, is evident in the delicate lines and subtle shading that convey the subject's form and the texture of their clothing. This intimate drawing, despite its small size, offers a glimpse into Ring's observational skills and his ability to infuse ordinary subjects with a sense of depth and emotion.
