7. P.S krøyer
P.S. Krøyer was famous throughout Europe, long before he went to
Skagen, but the paintings from Denmark's top gave him the popular
breakthrough. Mental illness and personal sorrow, however, took too
early the life of Krøyer, who, with his death just 100 years ago,
closed a crucial chapter in Danish art history
The painting of the highly burning fiery fire, surrounded by Skagen's
notabilities, is considered by many as P.S. Krøyer's "Magnus Opus",
the crucial massacre that encloses the great life of the famous artist.
And it is also a work that can be seen as the artist's attempt to put a
mirror in front of himself and the people who characterized his life
course.
