Herman Siegumfeldt

Herman Carl Siegumfeldt (18 September 1833 - 27 June 1912) was a Danish genre and landscape painter.

He was the son of Heinrich Anton Siegumfeldt, a farmer, and Maren Cathrine Schou.

[4] He won a small silver medal at the age of seventeen, but his financial situation was precarious, so he had to devote himself to crafts rather than continue his art studies.

Meanwhile, it required a great deal of effort to complete a canvas and he considered the possibility of having to give up painting.

In 1863, pleased with one of his works, the Royal Academy granted him a travel allowance to study in Belgium, France and Italy.
