Description
Alba Schwartz, née Larsen (1857-1942) grew up in Copenhagen and married Otto Schwartz in 1882. In 1899 he became mayor of Skagen, and Alba Schartz became part of the circle of friends connected to the Skagen painters. Michael Ancher had gathered notes for a book about the history of Skagen, but he passed them on to Alba Schwartz, who used them as part of the material for her two books about Skagen, published in 1912 and 1913. There is a smaller (55 x 35 cm) version of this painting at Skagens Museum, dated 1901.

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1927, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 95 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
