‘Sunlight in the Blue Room’ is an 1891 painting by Anna Ancher, an innovative Danish painter who was a central figure with the Skagen Painters. With its many shades of blue and the sunlight pouring through the window, the painting is one of her most famous works.

Those shadows cast by the foliage in the window are very evocative for me. The painting reminds me of summer afternoons at my grandparents’ farm. Some of my yesterdays.

@ChaHarper I actually prefer Anna Ancher's style over her husband's - I mean, Michael was an amazing artist, too, both of them commanding light like it owed them money, but her paintings strike me as more expressive, vibrant 🥰
@ChaHarper
