Monday hero: Anna Ancher

Anna Ancher (1859-1935) was a Danish painter, married to another painter called Michael Ancher.

Beside friendly portraits of ladies and the people of Skagen, Anna Ancher also painted work that intrigues me more:

Why, for instance, did she paint the harvesters twice, from both sides?

And I love the empty interiors with the lightfall, and the use of shadows in the works on the lower left and right.
