Karl (Kalle) Christian Bovin (1907–1985) was a Danish painter whose work focused on landscapes of Odsherred, a region in the north-west of Zealand.
[1] During his time at school, he associated with a group of constructivists who relied on intuition and observation, but eventually expressed dissatisfaction with their approach to art.
[3] In the early 1930s, he also spent time with the Funen Painters, especially Johannes Larsen and Fritz Syberg to establish a relationship between the two artists' colonies.
He specialized in landscapes, producing works which often had a high horizon and excelled in conveying the changing weather conditions he encountered in Odsherred.
Though closely involved with the impressionists, he continued to develop his own style and motifs through painting his natural surroundings in winter, summer and spring.
