You can’t see this woman and in any case she’s composed of scraps of paper. But she has a presence – and it’s an exquisite presence of her time.
A Danish painter, Fischer was a regular and committed participant in the annual exhibitions at Charlottenborg, The Danish Royal Academy. Although a painter of landscapes, street scenes, flowers and still lives, he was primarily known for his representations of young women in half or full figure in interior settings.
