More about this artwork

We are delighted to feature on our website a notable work by Swedish artist Ivar Arosenius titled "Ole Kruse Playing the Accordion," completed in 1903. This expressive sketch captures the musician Ole Kruse deeply engrossed in playing the accordion. The drawing, done primarily in pencil, brilliantly encapsulates a moment of musical dedication.The focal point of this artwork is Kruse, who is portrayed with a slight, almost motion-like blur, conveying the dynamic energy and movement typical of accordion playing. The sketch is characterized by soft, swift strokes that suggest the rhythm and melody flowing from the instrument. Kruse's facial expression, with tightly closed eyes and mouth partly open, perhaps in mid-note, adds a layer of emotional intensity to the scene.Arosenius has masterfully used minimal background details, allowing the viewer to focus entirely on the musician and his instrument. The rough, sketchy style of this drawing gives it a raw, immediate feel, as if capturing a spontaneous moment in time.
