Anna Ancher's mastery of painting light also includes soft lamplight as evidenced by Helga Reading in the Drawing Room (c1908, Skagens Museum). The room is still there with the sofa and the lamp in the Michael & Anna Anchers Hus; all the interiors are as they were when the artists were living there. Their daughter Helga (1893-1964) bequeathed Anchers Hus the family home and the art collection to a foundation with her name and it opened to the public in 1967. The exhibition at Dulwich is long-overdue but very welcome.
