About the piece
Painted in 1884, this masterful profile study by Peder Severin Krøyer depicts Anna Palm. The work showcases Krøyer's exceptional ability to capture light and texture, most notably in the thick impasto of the lace collar and the warm, luminous skin tones set against a brilliant blue sky-like backdrop. As a leading figure of the Skagen Painters, Krøyer’s confident brushwork here provides a modern, energetic take on traditional portraiture.
