Farmer from Amager, 1843. Grey-black folk costume, hat in hand. Wide trousers, pulled together at the ankles, coat unbuttoned. Multicolored edging on outer and inner coats. Buttons white, flower-like. Variegated scarf. Probably a holiday outfit because of the rich colours, the embroidery and the many buttons. Landscape with a white building in the background. Bright blue sky.
