Anna Ancher painted mostly indoor scenes, and if you visit Skagen a visit to the Anchers Hus where she lived with her artist husband, Michael, and daughter, Helga, is highly recommended. The house, part of the excellent Skagens Museum, also contains her studio. But occasionally she painted en plein air and captured the soft, glowing light so specific to this "remote corner" of Denmark. This is Harvest Time (c1901, Fuglsangkuntsmuseum).
