Lot description
Pen, ink and sepia on paper. Signed. joint monogram JTL (for Johan Thomas Lundbye) and S (for P. C. Skovgaard), dated 10 Feb. 1844. Inscribed on the back: 'J. Th. Lundbye + P. Skovgaard. Drawn for Maria Freund by Lundbye. The Stones and Tree in the Foreground by Skovgaard'. 15 x 21.5 cm. (31 x 36 cm.)The present drawing marks on several levels the close bond of friendship that existed between the painters Johan Thomas Lundbye and P. C. Skovgaard in the years 1840-48. According to the contemporary description on the back of the drawing, the work was thus created in a mutual, artistic dialogue between the two painters, each of whom has contributed an independent, compositional element - from the picturesque farmhouse in the background (Lundbye) to the picturesque stones and wind-blown trees in the foreground (Skovgaard).Literature: Bente Skovgaard, et al.
