Peter Ancher - Paintings by Peter Ancher in the Hirschsprung Collection, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Michael Peter Ancher (Danish, Bornholm 1849-1927 Skagen) - Paintings by Peter Ancher in the Hirschsprung Collection (Den Hirschsprungske Samling), Copenhagen, Denmark.
Michael Peter Ancher (9 June 1849 - 19 September 1927) was a Danish realist artist. He is remembered above all for his paintings of fishermen and other scenes from the Danish fishing community in Skagen.
Michael Peter Ancher was born at Rutsker on the island of Bornholm. The son of a local merchant, he attended school in Rønne but was unable to complete his secondary education as his father ran into financial difficulties, forcing him to fend for himself. In 1865, he found work as an apprentice clerk at Kalø Manor near Rønde in eastern Jutland. The following year, he met the painters Theodor Philipsen and Vilhelm Groth who had arrived in the area to paint. Impressed with his own early work, they encouraged him to take up painting as a profession. In 1871, he spent a short period at C.V Nielsen's art school as a preliminary to joining the Royal Danish Academy of Art in Copenhagen later in the year. Although he spent some time at the academy, he left in 1875 without graduating.
One of his student companions was Karl Madsen who invited him to travel to Skagen, a small fishing village in the far north of Jutland where the Baltic and North Sea converge. From the mid-1870s, he and Madsen became key members of a group of artists who congregated there each summer, known as the Skagen Painters.
After Ancher first visited Skagen in 1874, he settled there joining the growing society of artists. The colony of painters regularly met in the Brøndums Hotel in Skagen in order to exchange ideas. In 1880 Ancher married fellow painter and Skagen native Anna Brøndum, whose father owned the Brøndums Hotel. In the first years of their marriage, the couple had a home and studio in the Garden House, which is now in Skagens Museum's garden. After the birth of their daughter Helga in 1883, the family moved to Markvej in Skagen.
He achieved his artistic breakthrough in 1879 with the painting Vil han klare pynten (Will He Round the Point?). Michael Ancher's works depict Skagen's heroic fishermen and their dramatic experiences at sea, combining realism and with classical composition. Key works include The Lifeboat is Carried Through The Dunes (1883), The Crew Are Saved (1894) and The Drowned Man (1896).
Michael Ancher was influenced by his traditional training at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in the 1870s which imposed strict rules for composition. His marriage to Anna Ancher did, however, introduce him to the naturalistic concept of undecorated reproduction of reality and its colours. By combining the pictorial composition of his youth with the teachings of naturalism, Michael Ancher created what has been called modern monumental figurative art, such as A Baptism.

I Italiens lys. Et dansk-norsk kunstnerfællesskab. 1879-1886
OPLEV UDSTILLINGEN FRA 23. SEPTEMBER 2016 PÅ DEN HIRSCHSPRUNGSKE SAMLING I KØBENHAVN
I 1880’erne opholdt et dansk-norsk kunstnerfællesskab sig i Rom, Sora og bjergbyen Civita d’Antino i Italien. Inspireret af det italienske lys og folkeliv malede de hverdagslivets realistiske sider og landskabets skiftende stemninger - malerier der i dag står som hovedværker i den moderne kunst i Norden.
Udstillingen kaster et nyt lys over denne vigtige periode i skandinavisk kunsthistorie, hvor nogle af tidens betydeligste kunstnere på tværs af landegrænserne inspirerede hinanden. Oplev værker af P.S. Krøyer, Joakim Skovgaard, Viggo Pedersen, Kristian Zahrtmann, Theodor Philipsen og de norske malere Eilif Peterssen og Christian Meyer Ross. Udstillingen viser blandt andet en række værker, som ikke tidligere har været vist for publikum.
