Portræt af billedhuggeren, professor Nikolaj Dajon 1780s

This portrait, created by Jens Juel in the 1780s, depicts Nikolaj Dajon, a renowned Danish sculptor, in profile. Juel, a prominent Danish portrait painter, captured Dajon's likeness with meticulous detail, showcasing his sharp features and refined attire. The use of charcoal and chalk on paper creates a sense of realism and depth, typical of Juel's style. The work, housed in the Statens Museum for Kunst (SMK) in Copenhagen, offers a glimpse into the lives of prominent figures of the late 18th century Danish art world.
