The artist, Elisabeth Schiøtt, was particularly focused on the landscape motif. North Zealand, especially the countryside around Hornbaek and Frederiksvaerk, frequently appear in her work. The blooming meadows and rain-soaked sheds of the region, are equally interesting to her as motifs. She was educated at Kunstnernes Studieskole and later attended The Art Academy under Julius Paulsen. Over a period of 40 years, she exhibited almost every year at Charlottenborg and during her professional career, she sought inspiration in her travels to Paris and Sweden. Provenance: A Danish private collection.
