Albert Gottschalk
Albert Gottschalk (born July 3, 1866 in Stege , † February 13, 1906 in Frederiksberg ) was a Danish painter.
He was born in Stege, but later lived in Copenhagen . Gottschalk had a close personal and artistic connection with the poets Johannes Jørgensen , Viggo Stuckenberg and Sophus Claussen .
He found inspiration for his works in French art and the Danish painter PS Krøyer , who was also his teacher for some time.
The ambitious Gottschalk had great technical skills and worked with his motifs in his mind for a long time before he painted them. He looked for the motifs in Denmark and found them mostly near Copenhagen. His paintings often looked like quickly executed sketches, which was not recognized at the time. Only subsequent generations appreciated his artistic skills.
