About the piece
Created in 1896, this evocative oil study by Danish artist Peder Severin Krøyer captures the fragile glow of candlelight against a vast, dark interior. Known for his mastery of light as a leader of the Skagen Painters, Krøyer uses thick, textured brushwork to render the luminous flames and the warm glint of the brass candlesticks.
