âA lover of lightâ: in 1912, a French critic used these words
to describe the great Danish painter Peder Severin Krøyer, who had
close ties to the French art scene for more than two decades.
Krøyer first visited Paris in 1877, and his many letters clearly
show the impact French art had on Krøyerâs own development as a
painter, on the artistsâ colony in Skagen, and on Danish art
history in general. In Krøyer and Paris. French Connections and
Nordic Colours, art historians Mette Harbo Lehmann and Dominique
Lobstein describe Krøyerâs artistic development from the Golden
Age tradition favoured by the Danish academy to Naturalism and the
Modern Breakthrough. They show how inspiration from France can be
traced in his painting technique and his open-air paintings from
Skagen, revealing how French Naturalism made its mark on
Krøyerâs distinctive style.
