Anna Ancher

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.

Paul Fischer - Copenhagen in the best possible light

 

Københavns museum / museum of Copenhagen,
Stormgade 18, Copenhagen

The first exhibition for the Museum of Copenhagen as it reopens in its new home close to the city hall.

Paul Fischer was one of the first Danish painters to use photographs systematically for the composition of his paintings of street life and in the exhibition there are views of the city, both photographs and the luminous paintings, that record a crucial period of growth and change for Copenhagen in the decade before and the decade after 1900.
