In order to pay homage to the breadth of French influence on Nordic art, this exhibition presents the visual experiences of Finnish artists visiting Brittany. Towards the end of the 19th century, Brittany became a haven for artists as they searched for locales that were exotic, primeval and authentic at a time when industrialization and urbanization became widespread. Many Finnish artists ventured to Brittany where they were exposed to the major trends in French art. In addition to paintings and sculptures that reveal the influences of French art, a significant portion of the exhibit consists of ethnographic objects and material from Brittany itself.

The dining room of Brøndum’s Hotel in Skagen, Denmark played a crucial role in the story of the Skagen painters and the artist’s colony that flourished in Skagen in the 1880’s and 1890’s. The dining room today constitutes an integral part of the Skagens Museum. The Museum has long wanted to go into the many stories surrounding this. This book is the result of several years of research by curator Jensen, with the stories as well as examination of the individual works of the many brilliant and well-known artists who frequented the dining room. Lavishly illustrated including portraits of the artists.
