P. C. Skovgaard (b. Ringsted 1817, d. Copenhagen 1875)
View from Møns Klint (the cliff of Møn). Study. Unsigned. Oil on paper laid on canvas. 37×55 cm.
Skovgaard visited Møns Klint (the cliff of Møn) for the first time in 1841 and from then on the cliffs and the surrounding landscape became a long lasting love for him. He often returned to the area and rendered the cliffs both in smaller works like here and in works of more impressive size as in “Parti fra Møns Klint” from 1852, measuring 126×190 cm, which was acquired by Fuglsang Kunstmuseum at Bruun Rasmussen in 2008.
