Description
Jens Holger Drachmann (1880-1929) was the son of Emmy and Holger Drachmann. The experts at Bruun Rasmussen tell us that Krøyer painted the portrait in the summer of 1883, while Holger Drachmann was in Norway. Apparently, Jens was a very lively boy, and the story goes that Krøyer placed a stuffed seagull on a branch in the garden, and then had his friends converse it, to keep the boy's attention so Krøyer could paint him. Holger Drachmann was very pleased with the surprise painting, but when the couple split up, the children and the painting went with Emmy. She was later forced to sell it.

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 1909, 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 100 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.
