Marie and P.S. Krøyer were married on 23 July 1889 in Augsburg at her parents’ home. From there the couple went on their honeymoon to Stenbjerg in Jutland, where they painted together outside under the open sky. After a short stay in Copenhagen they continued on their honeymoon to Florence, Rome, Capri and Naples, where Marie became seriously ill for a longer period, and P.S. Krøyer did not get much painting done. In May they made it to Ravello and here Krøyer experienced a new found joy in his work and made several small studies on wood panels.
Lot no. 14 painted on the same trip to Italy.
