About the piece
Created in 1849 by Christen Dalsgaard, this tranquil oil study captures the quiet beauty of the Danish countryside. The composition is defined by its low horizon and expansive, atmospheric sky, which casts a soft light over the wooded middle ground and a solitary horse grazing in the foreground meadow. Dalsgaard’s delicate brushwork and naturalistic palette reflect the Golden Age of Danish painting.
