Artist, Norwegian, 1863 - 1944

This is a drawing of a group of figures gathered in a social setting. The scene is composed with loose, free-flowing lines, sketching out a group of figures engaged in conversation around tables. The artist has suggested the presence of people without fully detailing their features. The figures are shown from various angles, with some sitting and others standing, and circular shapes hint at cups on the table. The artist employs a minimalistic style, focusing on capturing the essence and movement within the scene instead of detailed realism. The drawing is likely rendered with ink or pencil.
