아나 앙케르(Anna Ancher), 덴마크, 화가, 1859-1935
덴마크의 북쪽 땅끝에 있는 어촌마을 '스카겐 Skagen'. 150년 전, 이곳엔 북유럽 화가들이 모여서 그림을 그리던 여관이 있었죠. '크리스티안 크로그'와 '크뢰이어' 부부 등이 해마다 이곳을 찾아오던 "스카겐 화가"들입니다.
이 여관집 딸 '아나 안케르'는 스카겐에서 나고 자라며 자연스레 붓을 잡게 되었고, 스카겐 동료 화가 '미카엘'과 결혼했습니다. 이들 부부는 덴마크 1000 크로네 (옛날 지폐)의 인물이 될 만큼 대표적인 예술가였으며, 그들의 딸 '헬가' 역시 화가가 되었답니다. '아나 안케르'는 가족이나 실내풍경을 많이 그렸으며, 빛과 색상 표현이 매우 뛰어납니다.
특히 어머니가 머물던 푸른색 방은 그녀 작품들 중 압권이죠. 북유럽의 화가들이 모여들던 스카겐 예술인 마을의 바로 그 여관은, 이제 미술관으로 바뀌어 전 세계의 방문객들을 맞고 있습니다.
About Her
Anna Ancher (18 August 1859 – 15 April 1935) was a Danish artist associated with the Skagen Painters, an artists' colony on the northern point of Jutland, Denmark. She is considered to be one of Denmark's greatest visual artists.
Anna Kirstine Brøndum was born in Skagen, Denmark, the daughter of Erik Andersen Brøndum (1820–1890) and Ane Hedvig Møller (1826–1916). She was the only one of the Skagen Painters who was actually born and grew up in Skagen, where her father owned the Brøndums Hotel. The artistic talent of Anna Ancher became obvious at an early age, and she grew acquainted with pictorial art via the many artists who settled to paint in Skagen, in the north of Jutland.
While she studied drawing for three years at the Vilhelm Kyhn College of Painting in Copenhagen, she developed her own style and was a pioneer in observing the interplay of different colors in natural light. She also studied drawing in Paris at the atelier of Pierre Puvis de Chavannes along with Marie Triepcke, who would marry Peder Severin Krøyer, another Skagen painter. In 1880 she married fellow painter Michael Ancher, whom she met in Skagen. They had one child, daughter Helga Ancher. Despite pressure from society that married women should devote themselves to household duties, she continued painting after marriage.
Anna Ancher was considered to be one of the great Danish pictorial artists by virtue of her abilities as a character painter and colorist. Her art found its expression in Nordic art's modern breakthrough towards a more truthful depiction of reality, e.g. in Blue Ane (1882) and The Girl in the Kitchen (1883–1886).
Ancher preferred to paint interiors and simple themes from the everyday lives of the Skagen people, especially fishermen, women and children. She was intensely preoccupied with exploring light and color, as in Interior with Clematis (1913). She also created more complex compositions such as A Funeral (1891). Anna Ancher's works often represented Danish art abroad. She was awarded the Ingenio et Arti medal in 1913 and the Tagea Brandt Rejselegat in 1924.
The Skagen residence of Anne and Michael Ancher was purchased in 1884. In 1913, a large studio annex was added to the property, and this also formed part of what is on display today. Upon her death in 1964, the Anchers' daughter, Helga, left the house and all of its contents to a foundation. The former residence was restored and opened as a museum and visitor attraction.
In 1967, Michael and Anna Ancher's house (Anchers Hus) in Skagen was converted into a museum by the Helga Ancher Foundation before Anchers Hus opened to the public for tours. Original furniture and paintings created by the Anchers and other Skagen artists are shown in the restored home and studio. Art exhibitions are arranged in the Saxild House (Saxilds Gaard), another building on the property, and is filled with displays of paintings by Michael and Anna Ancher as well as many other Skagen painters who made up their circle of friends.
Anna and Michael Ancher were featured on the front side of the DKK1000 bill, which came into circulation on 25 November 2004 and was subsequently replaced. The front of the banknote had a double portrait of Anna and Michael Ancher, derived from two 1884 paintings by Peder Severin Krøyer, which originally hung on the walls in the dining room at Brøndums Hotel.
