Sketch for The Supper at Emmaus is a 1650 by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This sketch shows three people sitting around a table with a loaf of bread in the middle. The person on the left leans forward, hands clasped, while the one in the center looks upward with a serious expression. The person on the right reaches toward the bread, their posture relaxed but focused. The rough, dark lines give the scene a dramatic, almost urgent feel. The artist used quick strokes to suggest movement and emotion without full detail. Check out more about cross-hatching to see how artists build texture with lines.
