Niels Skovgaard, A Summer Day In A Garden In Esrum
A glorious Summertime scene depicting a garden in Esrum by accomplished Danish painter, Niels Skovgaard (1858-1938). With a series of quick daubs and a few blocks of colour, the artist has captured the atmosphere beautifully.
The view is flanked by two mature trees, which are dappled with light and casting shadows in the foreground. While on the right, a stone-built building partially emerges and reflects the sun from its tiled roof.
Skovgaard produced this piece towards the end of his life when his works had become entirely impressionistic. And in a similar vein to Monet’s final works, this is primarily a study into the varying effects of light.
It’s easy to imagine him carrying his easel out to the garden and sitting under a shady tree. It looks to be such a sun-drenched day that the temptation to paint would’ve been overwhelming.
The Skovgaard family have a museum dedicated to them in Viborg, Denmark, and you can find out more about Niels at skovgaardmuseet.dk.

Terms and conditions
Please be assured that we inspect every painting, drawing or print to check for issues relating to its condition during its time here with us. When we notice a fault or potential problem, we will note this down on the item's condition report, which can be found within each listing. We take various steps to ensure that your artwork will stand the test of time but we're unable to offer any warranties or guarantees as we're just one custodian in a potentially long line of previous owners.
Our inspections include a check for any signs of woodworm, historic or otherwise, as this is not unusual in antique frames or stretchers. If we discover any small holes, we treat the wood with a solution which states that "its deep penetration ensures effective protection for many years and prevents re-infestation". With this in mind, it's very unlikely that any future issues will occur, especially given that the wood may also have been treated by previous owners. However, as mentioned above, we are unable to provide any warranties or guarantees - just be assured that we care.
Also, many of the paintings include hanging equipment, namely wire or string. Sometimes this is already present when we purchase an item so we check to see if it's been attached correctly. However, we can't test the durability of this equipment as many of the paintings are sold quickly. So please do seek any advice if you're unsure how to hang your paintings correctly, especially if they're heavy, and do check on them from time to time.
If you have any questions at all, please just ask.
