About this work

This painting shows a boy in an elaborate outfit from the time of Frederik IV. He is dressed in a fancy coat with a large collar and a hat, and he is holding a sword. The background is a landscape with trees and a body of water. The boy's clothing and the landscape suggest that the painting is from the 18th century. The artist's use of color and light creates a sense of depth and atmosphere in the painting. The painting is held at the Statens Museum for Kunst.
