Catalogue Note
Brendekilde trained as a stonemason before studying sculpture at the Kongelige Danske Kunstacademi (1877-1881) in Copenhagen. In 1880s Brendekilde painted together with L.A. Ring on Fyn and influenced each other's work. Influenced by Impressionism, Brendekilde was a sensitive colourist. See P.M. Hornung, 'NY Dansk Kunsthistorie', Band 4, 1993, pp. 220-223 & C.
