"Landskab med kro" (Landscape with Inn) is an etching by Danish artist Gerhard Ludvig Lahde, dating back to 1790. The artwork depicts a simple country scene, featuring a small, thatched-roof house, likely an inn, nestled amidst trees and winding paths. Lahde's precise lines and detailed depiction of the rural landscape showcase his skill in capturing the essence of Danish countryside life. This etching, now housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, exemplifies the charm of 18th-century Danish landscape art, offering viewers a glimpse into the daily life of a bygone era.
