Figure, c. 1940-41. Unsigned. Oil on canvas. 70 x 58 cm. #%i%# In his book about Carl-Henning Pedersen, Virtus Schade writes about a compositionally similar painting entitled "Two figures" from 1941, which is located at the Museum of Modern Art Aalborg: "This is a child's drawing, if ever there was one. It is the kind of painting that makes parents say the following to their young children at exhibitions: "You could paint that just as well couldn?t you?" I've heard the question posed a couple of times. And one time an innocent child said: "No mother, I am not that good". And it was from the child that the truth had to be heard. Carl-Henning Pedersen is good. The painting is skilfully made." (Virtus Schade: "Carl-Henning Pedersen," Stig Vendelkær?s Publishing Company, Copenhagen, 1966, p. 43) Estimate in DKK : 200000 250000
