The bearded man in the center of this painting is artist Peter Krøyer, whose Interior of a Tavern is also in the Museum's permanent collection. The scene is an after-dinner gathering of artists, critics, and friends in the home of Viggo Johansen.
* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons. Although gallery locations on the website are updated regularly, there is no guarantee that this object will be on display on the day of your visit.
