- Detailed, almost photorealistic depictions of nature, made Peder Mönsted one of the most successful Danish landscape painters of his time. - Reflecting water surfaces are a central motif in his work, allowing him to showcase his virtuoso technical skill. - Even during his lifetime, his works were highly prized by the European aristocracy. He participated in numerous national and international exhibitions and found his first collectors in America, where some of his works are still in museum collections today (Dahesh Museum, New York).
We are grateful to Galerie Paffrath, Düsseldorf, for the kind support in cataloging this lot.
