Karl Harald Alfred Broge
Poppy and Anemone Still Life Floral Study in Oil on Linen

1908

About the Item

Delicate and detailed floral still life by Alfred Broge (Danish, 1870-1955). Three white anemones and one pink poppy, all with stems and leaves, sit against a medium grey background. They are carefully rendered, with subtle texture. The shadows and highlights demonstrate Broge's mastery of lighting and realistic style. Signed and dated "Alf. Broge 1908" in the lower right corner. Presented in an antique gilded frame. Frame size: 18.75"H x 12.75"W Board size: 14.5"H x 8.5"W Karl Harald Alfred Broge was a painter of the Danish School, born in Copenhagen in 1870. He was a pupil of Holger Grönvold and exhibited at the Academy of Arts from 1889 to 1894, where he was a student of Rudolf Bissen for a short while. His paintings were exhibited at Castle Charlottenborg between 1892 and 1911 and at the Art Union between 1921 and 1940. He received several honors for his works, eg. the Academy Prize in 1900, 1901 and 1903. He is best known for his sunlit Danish interiors, often with a seated lady, but also an accomplished painter of Danish Landscapes which he exhibited at the Academy in 1891, 1892 and 1894. He was appointed director of a “drawing school for women without fortune.”
