Kongelig kammerlakaj is a 1807 unspecified by Unknown, a Biedermeier work, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This drawing shows a man in a bright red military jacket with gold buttons and a pale yellow coat. He’s holding a black hat in one hand and a folded paper in the other, wearing white stockings and black shoes. The background is plain, and the colors stand out sharply against it. The loose, sketchy style suggests it was done quickly, maybe as a study. The outfit looks like a uniform, but we don’t know who he was. If you like this style, check out Romanticism.
