Skagen Painters were a group of Scandinavian artists who came together around the turn of the twentieth century in Skagen, Denmark’s northernmost point, where two oceans meet. They formed a particular school of painting, inspired by the unique quality of the light in Skagen. “This country is mild, smiling, fantastic, mighty, wild, wonderful and awe-inspiring …. it is Skagen – there is no other place on the face of this earth like it” This is how the Norwegian painter Christian Krohg described Skagen.
