Manden der ser alt (The man who sees everything). is a 1919 oil by Vilhelm Lundstrøm, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting depicts a man standing on the left side, wearing a hat and a long coat, looking through binoculars. In the middle, there is a bust of a man, and on the right side, a nude woman with her hair tied up is shown. The background is dark and shadowy. The man in the painting seems to be observing the nude woman and the bust of the man. The use of dark colors and shadows creates a sense of mystery and intrigue. If you're interested in learning more about the artist's use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark to create a sense of volume in modeling three-dimensional objects and figures, you might want to explore further.
Vilhelm Lundstrøm (26 May 1893 – 9 May 1950) was a Danish modernist painter. He was a central figure in early Danish experimental art and introduced French cubism to Denmark.
