Viggo Henrik Fog Stuckenberg (17 September 1863 – 6 December 1905) was a Danish poet, notable for his lyrical and emotional poems.

But the marriage ended with Ingeborg leaving her husband and children in 1903 to emigrate to New Zealand with the gardener Hans Madsen.

Stuckenberg married Madsen's ex-wife, Clara Holbøll (1868–1940), in 1904 and died in Copenhagen the following year of kidney inflammation.

After leaving the university, Stuckenberg was employed as a teacher at Slomanns School in Frederiksberg where he remained for the rest of his life.

[2][4][5] His own life drama was a lasting source of inspiration for his poetry, where the main themes were marriage, luck, and accident.

Indeed, his own work often reflected Russian themes, especially in regard to his characters: men were often depicted as weak and lazy dreamers while women showed will and ability.

While his works were built on Romanticism and the Modern Breakthrough, they were not part of these movements and thus, they fail to look to the future and seldom invoking symbolism.
