Himmelblomst (Commelina Coelestis), indfældet i dagbogsnotater 1845

"Himmelblomst (Commelina Coelestis), indfældet i dagbogsnotater" is a small-scale watercolor and pencil drawing by Johan Thomas Lundbye. Created in 1845, it depicts two figures, a man carrying a child on his shoulders, walking on a path through a landscape. The drawing is an example of Lundbye's characteristic style of combining detailed observation of nature with a focus on everyday life. This work, from the artist's sketchbooks, reflects Lundbye's interest in capturing the beauty of the natural world and the daily activities of people. This intimate portrayal of a father carrying his child, framed by the artist's own handwritten notes, captures the everyday details of Lundbye's travels and offers a glimpse into the life of this prominent Danish artist.
