Hansine Kerrn Eckersberg (b. Copenhagen 1826, d. s.p. 1860)
Still life with roses and pansies in a kylix. Unsigned. Oil on cardboard. 26.5×36 cm.
Exhibited: The Museum at Sønderborg Castle, “O. D. Ottesen og andre danske blomstermalere på H. C. Andersen tid”, 1986.
Provenance: The artist herself and thence by descent until today.
Hansine Sophie Joachimine Kerrn-Eckersberg, née Kerrn, was married to architect Jens Juel Eckersberg (1822–1891), son of the painter C. W. Eckersberg (1783–1853) and his wife Julie Elisabeth Catrine Juel (1791–1827). Despite the fact that Hansine was the daughter-in-law of C. W. Eckersberg, she found most of her inspiration from the painter I. L. Jensen (1800–1856) and his school, and it is very likely that she received training from the master flower painter himself.
A few minor retouches and peelings. Uneven layers of varnish. Minor crackles. In need of cleaning.
