[edit]P. S. Krøyer's paintings of Marie (with Ipigott)
Peder Severin Krøyer painted various portraits of his wife, Marie Krøyer, a fellow Danish artist who was said to be one of the most beautiful women in Copenhagen. Norwegian-born Peder fell in love with her when they met in Paris in 1889 and the couple settled in Skagen on the northern tip of Jutland in 1891, joining the group of artists known as the Skagen Painters. The first few years of their marriage were reasonably happy but by the early 1900s they spent ever more time apart, and in 1902 Marie began an affair with the Swedish composer Hugo Alfvén, with whom she became pregnant in 1905. Thereafter she spent most of her time with Alfvén in Sweden, marrying him in 1912, three years after Krøyer had died in Skagen.
Krøyer's paintings of Marie between 1888 and 1906 show some of their most enjoyable times but also hint at the marital tension that increased as time went by. Among the most notable paintings of her are Summer Evening at Skagen. The Artist's Wife and Dog by the Shore (1892), Roses (1893), and Summer Evening at Skagen Beach – The Artist and his Wife (1899). Also of note are the depictions of Marie in Ravello in 1890; the portrait for the frieze in the dining room at Skagen's Brøndums Hotel; Chez Moi, a series of watercolours of Marie and the couple's daughter Vibeke in the family homes in Copenhagen and Skagen; and Midsummer Eve Bonfire on Skagen Beach, his last painting of her in which she is shown captured in the firelight with Alfvén.
