#sigurd swane

Christine Swane (May 29, 1876 - 1960) was a Danish artist, whose brother was Johannes Larsen and who was married to Sigurd Swane, both prominent members of Fynbomalerne.

However Christine wanted more than becoming just another regional landscape painter, and she developed her own brand of post-Cubist still life painting, almost always held in green, blue and yellow colors.

She chose Grønningen as her artists’ association, and worked across media with ceramics, textiles and paint, creating many decorative works as well as canvas art.
