Boys Bathing at Skagen. Summer Evening
1899 · Statens Museum for Kunst, Copenhagen
genreAmong all the Skagen painters, Kryer was the most brilliant and also the most celebrated in his own day. He would make any composition work as perfectly as could be using only a few simple devices. Here he creates a diagonal movement from the boys in the foreground to the ships by the horizon.
