Michael Ancher, Danish Skagen Painter

Another of my favorites:

Michael Ancher, Skagen painter 

1849 - 1927

Michael Peter Ancher was a Danish impressionist artist. 

He is most associated with his paintings of fishermen and other scenes from the Danish port of Skagen. His paintings are classics and he is probably one of Denmark's most popular artists. 

Born: June 9, 1849, Bornholm

Died: September 19, 1927, Skagen

Period: Impressionism

Michael Peter Ancher was born on the island of Bornholm. He studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Art (Det Kongelige Danske Kunstakademi) in Copenhagen (1871-5)

A group of artists had congregated to form the Skagen Painters in Skagen, a small fishing village in the north of Denmark, situated where the Baltic and North Sea converge.

After Ancher first visited Skagen in 1874, he settled there joining the growing society of artists. The colony of painters regularly met in the Brøndums Hotel in Skagen in order to exchange ideas. 

In 1880 Ancher married fellow painter and Skagen native Anna Brøndum, whose father owned the Brøndums Hotel.

Anna and Michael Ancher 

In the first years of their marriage, the couple had a home and studio in the "Garden House", which is now in Skagen Museum garden. After the birth of his daughter Helga in 1883 the family moved to Markvejen in Skagen.

Ana painted by husbond Michael.

Ana Ancher was a very skilled painter, too.
She is my favorite painter among the Skagen Painters.
