En bro over Skodsborgvej. I baggrunden Sundet

Employing chiaroscuro, the artist creates depth through contrasting light and shadow, guiding the eye from the foreground figures to the distant horizon where boats dot the water. The palette of muted greens and grays, combined with soft cloud formations, reinforces the scene’s serene mood while highlighting the structural details of the bridge.

Attributed to the artist recorded as 709_person, the piece entered the collection of the Museum of Ethnography, where it remains on display. Its acquisition date is not documented, but the work’s early‑19th‑century origin situates it within the period’s interest in documenting local Danish landscapes.
