#genre painting
Georg Seligmann (April 22, 1866 - 1924) was a Danish genre painter who had studied with P.S. Krøyer and Laurits Tuxen, after which he traveled extensively abroad, studying old masters (particularly Frans Hals).
He exhibited at Forårsudstillingen at Charlottenborg and later at Den Frie. He did quite a few architecture paintings and portraits, including a whole show of “Doctor portraits” (apparently he was hospitalized for long periods towards the end of his life).
He is represented at Den Hirschsprungske Samling and Statens Museum for Kunst, from where this canvas comes:

Pablo Picasso - The Kiss (1925)
- I guess everyone knows Gustav Klimt’s painting, The Kiss. One of my favorite ever. Lots of artist tried to remake it in their own style and i really admire this piece of Picasso and i’m so happy that i had chance to see this in the National Gallery of Budapest!

Pablo Picasso - The Death of Casagemas (1901)
- Picasso was twenty years old, when his good friend Carles Casagemas commited suicide in 1901, so he painted this masterpiece in memory of him. After this experience he started the blue period.
