Postverk Foroya has now officially announced its

A preview is uploaded on

(scroll to bottom of page)

The issue is a painting of "Traditional Faeroese Chain
Dance in the Inn" made by the Danish painter Emil
Krause (1871-1945), who -- except for two periods --
lived and worked most of his life in Farum, a small
suburb c. 20 km north of Copenhagen, beautifully
located in a semi-rural area, surrounded by big woods
and deep lakes, and where his atelier can still be visited.

Interesting sheet indeed, even if it doesn't look as being engraved.


It may not look so on the image provided, but it is for sure
engraved.

Apparently it is nice to live in Farum, where I suppose that you have
visited Krause's atelier. BTW, has he lived also in Faeroe?


Yes, for two periods, 1904-1905 and 1932-1933.
