Holger Jens Sophus Jensen (21 April 1900 – 24 July 1966) was a Danish painter.
[2] Inspired by Cubism and Fauvism as well as by Cézanne's approach to form and colour, he painted still lifes, portraits and landscapes, including scenes of Bornholm and Frederiksberg Park.
[1] In later life Jensen turned to Expressionism, painting landscapes and cityscapes as well as interiors and self-portraits.
He also became expert at woodcuts and lithography, achieving various shades of grey, but he limited his work to teaching rather than publication.
He was indeed an acclaimed teacher at the Academy, counting Helle Thorborg, Erik Lagoni Jacobsen and Vera Myhre among his students.
