This drawing by C.F. Stanley (1738-1813) is a design for a monument dedicated to Crown Prince Frederik (VI) in the form of a classical sculpture. The central figure of the Crown Prince, dressed in military uniform, is flanked by two allegorical female figures. Six more allegorical figures are positioned on the pedestal below, suggesting the prince's virtues and the qualities that make him worthy of commemoration. This work, held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, demonstrates Stanley's interest in neoclassical style and his skill in conveying the symbolic language of statuary.
