This early 20th-century oil painting by Danish artist Hjalmar Kragh-Pedersen (1883-1962) depicts the industrial area of Sydhavn, Denmark.
Hjalmar Kragh-Pedersen was predominantly known for his expressive oil paintings depicting industrial scenes, such as this, but he also produced townscapes and figurative work. Hailing from Copenhagen, he exhibited with the Danish Colourists (Koloristerne) for 30 years.
The sturdy application of paint echoes the gritty landscape.
