Stubmølle ved Køge is a 1900 oil by Albert Gottschalk, depicting Windmill, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a windmill in a rural setting. The windmill is in the center of the image, with a small building to its left. The windmill has a large wheel with four blades, and a ladder leading up to the door. The background is a gray sky. The windmill appears to be old and worn, with some of the wood showing signs of decay. The surrounding landscape is flat and open, with a few trees visible in the distance. The overall mood of the painting is one of quietness and stillness. If you're interested in learning more about windmills, you might want to check out the subject: windmill.
