Description
Ole Svendsen (in the foreground) was a fisherman and part of the crew of the Skagen lifeboat. Ancher portrayed him a number of times. Ole Christoffersen was a farmer and warden of the coastland ("klitfoged"). Due to his stature being similar to Holger Drachmann (who was his neighbour in Skagen), the painter P.S. Krøyer used Ole Christoffersen as model for Drachmann in his 1908 painting of the fellow artist.

Permission
(Reusing this file)
This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1927, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 95 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
