Lucie Ingemann

Lucia Maria Ingemann (née Mandix; 19 February 1792 – 15 January 1868) was a Danish painter who is best known for her large altarpieces depicting biblical figures, many of which are displayed in Denmark's churches.

They lived in Sorø, where they entertained other Danish cultural figures such as Hans Christian Andersen and Bertel Thorvaldsen.

She shared with her husband a deep sense of art and religion with the result that even her flower paintings often reflected religious and mystical themes inspired by German Romanticism.

She also played an important role in the Ingemanns' home despite the fact that references to her come mainly from accounts of her husband's life.
