For the painter Fritz Syberg and his large group of children, Fyns Hoved (Funen's Head) appeared as something very special. The rugged and scenic area attracted him, and he let himself be excited by the untouched nature. The family spent several months in the summer away from civilization at Fyns Hoved several years in a row. Here, the family could live at one with nature all the way out on the beach in small huts. They lived quite primitively, in Stone Age fashion, on the fish they caught and the vegetables they grew. It was during this period that “vitalism” with a focus on the healthy simple life made its way into art. Syberg was very productive during this period. The family and the coastal landscape dominated his motifs. Often the bathing children or, as here, the daughter thoughtfully sitting in the magnificent nature.
