About this work

A pen and brown ink drawing shows a busy quayside with figures in period dress gathered in the foreground near a horse and a small dog. Tall-masted ships lie along the water, with a row of multi-storey warehouses and two church spires rising in the background under a sky of billowing clouds. The work is by Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg, dated 1807, and is titled Copenhagen, the night between September 4 and 5, 1807, seen from Christianshavn.
