About the piece
Painted in 1917 by Danish artist Michael Ancher, this impressionistic work captures the airy atmosphere of Skagen in autumn. The composition is dominated by a dramatic sky of swirling, textured clouds that tower over a narrow band of golden horizon, showcasing the artist's masterful use of light and impasto on panel.
