Statens Museum for Kunst / The National Gallery of Denmark, Sølvgade, Copenhagen
A major retrospective of the work of the Danish artist whose paintings record the landscape of Skagen and the life in and around the small town from the 1880s through to the 1920s.
There are amazing studies in light and colour but also portraits and interiors that record a way of life at a crucial point of change for Denmark as the country moved from a primarily rural and maritime economy towards what we recognise as a modern state.
