Anna Ancher | Skagen painter

Anna Ancher (1859-1935) was in reality the only Woman painter among the Skagen artists, a fact that was mirrored in her paintings, which depict the world of women.

She painted many women - many more than men - and these women were often alone.

A typical Anna Ancher motif was a single female figure in an interior setting - a bedroom or a living room - quietly occupied with a task or merely thoughtful and withdrawn.

This contemplation is a very characteristic trait in Anna Ancher’s female figures.
