The Author Sophus Schandorph is a 1895 by Unknown, a Impressionism work, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows an older man with a white beard and mustache, dressed in a dark suit and bow tie. He’s sitting in a cozy room, holding a glass of what looks like whiskey. A book and a lamp are on the table in front of him, and a chair sits beside him. The brushstrokes are loose, giving the scene a soft, almost dreamy feel. The lighting is warm, focusing on his face and hands while the background stays dark. If you like this style, check out Impressionism.
