Solo show
Marie Krøyer
22 Sep 2023 — 18 Feb 2024 at Hirschsprung Collection
· Copenhagen Municipality
This exhibition shines a spotlight on Marie Krøyer, the talented Danish painter who carved out a distinctive place for herself in the vibrant artistic community of Skagen at the turn of the 20th century.
Known for her luminous portraits and intimate depictions of everyday life, Marie Krøyer brought a refined sensitivity to her work that set her apart from her contemporaries. The exhibition brings together paintings and works on paper that reveal the full range of her artistic vision, from sun-drenched coastal scenes to quietly powerful studies of the human figure.
Visitors are invited to discover — or rediscover — an artist whose contribution to Scandinavian art history deserves far greater recognition.
