About the piece
Painted in 1898 by the Danish master Peder Severin Krøyer, this formal portrait depicts Heinrich Hirschsprung, the prominent tobacco manufacturer and art collector. The work showcases Krøyer's exceptional ability to handle light and texture, from the crisp white of the evening shirtfront to the soft, painterly rendering of the subject's beard and the subtle, atmospheric interior background.
