Portrait of the Poet Emil Bønnelycke 1921

Vilhelm Lundstrom's "Portrait of the Poet Emil Bønnelycke" is a striking oil painting created in 1921. The artwork features the Danish poet Emil Bønnelycke, rendered in a bold and expressive style, seated with his legs crossed and hands clasped. His striking blue suit is a focal point of the piece, contrasting with the warm orange and yellow tones of the background. The painting, now housed at the Statens Museum for Kunst (SMK) in Copenhagen, exemplifies Lundstrom's unique approach to portraiture and his adeptness in capturing the essence of his subject through vivid color and simplified forms.
