An extremely nice impression with good coloring. [Olufsen/Svensson 45]. Peter Ilsted and Vilhelm Hammershøi, together with Carl Holsøe (1863-1935), were leading artists in early 20th-century Denmark.

Description:
1800. Graphite and grayish ink wash on bluish wove paper, 7 x 10 1/2 inches (177 x 265 mm) (matrix). Scattered surface soiling, adhesive residue, dog-eared corners, and scattered edge tears along left margin, outside of image area. Paper is braced on the verso with two pages from a mid 19th century book with illustrations by C.Perrin. One image depicts a scene of a group of soldiers representing the Holy Roman Empire causing a ruckus in a tavern named for King Richard the Lionhearted. Soldiers in what appears to be 18th century uniform bicker, one drawing his sword in defense, a lady appearing at his side, the other standing at the foot of an empty throne. Perhaps a then modern depiction of King Richard refusing to show deference to the Holy Roman Empire.
