Ung dame i profil 1881

"Ung dame i profil" (Young Lady in Profile) is a 1881 plaster relief by Danish sculptor Søren Madsen (1861-1890), currently housed in the Statens Museum for Kunst. The artwork depicts a young woman's profile in a three-dimensional, sculpted form, capturing her delicate features and elegant attire with meticulous detail. The relief's circular format, a common technique in portraiture, emphasizes the subject's presence and draws the viewer's attention to her serene expression. Madsen's "Ung dame i profil" showcases the artist's mastery of naturalistic form and his ability to portray subtle emotions through sculpted detail.
