Artist
Knud Larsen
Knud Larsen is a Post-Impressionism painter. 6 works are cataloged here, principally at Statens Museum for Kunst, most of them oil paintings.
Knud Larsen painted quiet, unhurried moments—births, portraits, funerals—with the same steady hand whether the scene was a parlor or a field. He buried his own daughter in 1893 and turned the grief into a painting so plain it feels like a ledger entry for sorrow. His “Peasant Funeral” shows a coffin on a country road with no dramatic sky, just the weight of the earth under everyone’s boots.
