The Abandoned Daughters of the Lord High Constable, Stig Andersen Hvide 1839

"The Abandoned Daughters of the Lord High Constable" is a painting by Danish artist Dankvart Dreyer, created in 1839. The painting, now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a dramatic scene of two women, likely mother and daughter, abandoned on a rocky shore. The stormy sea and distant village in the background further emphasize the emotional weight of their isolation, making this a powerful example of Romanticism in Danish art.
