Christian Zacho (b. Grenaa 1843, d. Hellerup 1913)
View from Møns Klint (the Cliffs of Møn) with “Sommerspiret”. Signed and dated C. Z. 74. Oil on canvas. 37×59 cm.
The cliffs of Møn are a very special natural phenomenon. Artists and scientists visited the place in the 19th century and continue to do so today. This is a rare Danish landscape that recalls some of the greatness seen in Norway and in the Alps. Painters in the 19th century were attracted by the impressive white cliffs.
“Sommerspiret”, with a height of 102 meters, was a remarkable lime peak at Møn's Cliff until it collapsed during a large landslip in January 1988.
