Efter studentereksamen begyndte Harald Leth (1899-1986) at studere medicin. 
After completing upper secondary school, Harald Leth (1899-1986) began studying medicine.
I 1921 opholdt han sig hos maleren Johannes Larsen, og de følgende år var han elev hos malerne Harald Giersing og Olaf Rude. 
He spent the year of 1921 with the painter Johannes Larsen, and in the following years he was a student of the painters Harald Giersing and Olaf Rude.
Også et venskab med maleren Oluf Høst, med hvem han foretog mange rejser, fik stor betydning for hans udvikling som maler. 
Likewise, his acquaintance with the painter Oluf Høst, with whom he travelled a great deal, had a major influence on his development as a painter.
Og selv om han malede og udstillede hele livet, var han i den brede offentlighed bedre kendt som skribent end som maler. 
Even though he continued to paint and exhibit throughout his entire life, he was better known to the general public as a writer than a painter.
Harald Leths udgangspunkt er iagttagelsen af naturen og den nære virkelighed. 
The source of Harald Leth's motifs is observation of nature and his immediate environment.
Motiverne er det, der ligger lige for: landskabet og solnedgangen, opstillinger og interiører, ræven i skovbrynet og fuglene i buskene, portrætter og selvportrætter, skovarbejderne og nabohusets gavle - og de badende ved stranden. 
The motifs are those which are close at hand: landscapes and sunsets, arrangements and interiors, the fox at the fringe of the wood and the birds in the bushes, portraits and self-portraits, forest workers and the gables of the house next door - and bathers at the beach.
Men hans billeder er ikke virkelighedsskildringer. 
His pictures are not realistic paintings, though.
Virkeligheden er det, der sætter den maleriske proces i gang. 
Reality is what unleashes the artistic process.
Men i løbet af processen, som trods de små formater ofte tog lang tid, flyttes fokus fra motivet til koloritten, rytmen og stofligheden. 
But during the process which was often lengthy, in spite of the small sizes, focus is moved away from the motif to the colours, the rhythm and the textural effect.
På den måde bliver Harald Leths malerier til maleriske fortolkninger af det, han ser og sanser. 
In this way, Harald Leth's paintings become pictorial interpretations of what he sees and senses.
Men han formår også at fange det universelle i de mere fordringsløse og simple motiver. 
What is more, he is able to capture the universal aspects of unpretentious and simple motifs.
Et landskab kan således på én gang være en erkendelse af hele universet, samtidigt med at det rummer en fortrolighed med motivet, der er opstået gennem lang tids intenst arbejde med netop dette motiv. 
So, a landscape can be a realisation of the whole universe and at the same time contain an intimate knowledge of the motif which has emerged after intensive work with exactly that motif over a long period.
Hans udtryk har mange lighedspunkter med impressionismen. 
His form of expression has several points of resemblance to impressionism.
Harald Leth er traditionsforbundne i sit udtryk, og det var derfor naturligt, at han fandt sammen med ligesindede i Martsudstillingen fra 1950. 
Harald Leth's form of expression is bound by tradition, and therefore it was only natural that he got together with like-minded artists in the group Martsudstillingen (the March Exhibition) from 1950.

His stay there was planned to last for a few months, but - owing to the outbreak of World War I - it became a stay of eight years, where he witnessed the war and the revolution.
En kort overgang var han kunstkommissær i Vitebsk, men hans kunstsyn passede ikke ind i det kommunistiske system, og i 1923 rejste han igen til Paris og opholdt sig der resten af livet - kun afbrudt af et ophold i USA under Anden Verdenskrig. 
For a short while he acted as an art commissioner in Vitebsk, but his views on art did not match the Communist system, and in 1923 he travelled back to Paris and remained there for the rest of his life - only interrupted by a stay in the USA during World War II.

Udgangspunktet for Lene Bødkers værker er en model, som hun laver enten i ler eller i voks.

De bestod af simple skåle og rundbundede krukker i sort lertøj med indridsede dekorationer.

The characteristic double-spout vessel spread from the Chavin culture which existed in the period 1600-500 BC.

Som mange andre af sin generations malere gik Viggo Jensen (1886-1973) i lære som malersvend. 
Like many other painters of his generation Viggo Jensen (1886-1973) apprenticed as a journeyman painter.
Her blev han dog kun få måneder, hvorefter han resten af sit liv arbejdede på sine egne præmisser og temmelig ubemærket. 
He only stayed there for a few months, however, and he spent the rest of his life working on his own terms and passing fairly unnoticed.
Således gik der helt frem til 1924 før han udstillede første gang med Frie jyske Malere, og han sendte først billeder til Kunstnernes Efterårsudstilling i 1927, hvor de straks blev antaget. 
So it was not until 1924 that he first exhibited together with the artists' association Frie jyske Malere (Free Jutland Painters), and he submitted paintings to Kunstnernes Efterårsudstilling (the Artists' Autumn Exhibition) for the first time in 1927 where they were immediately accepted.
I 1940'erne arbejdede han med opstillinger, som han forenklede mere og mere, så der til sidst ikke længere var figurative elementer tilbage i billederne. 
In the 1940s he worked with compositions which he eventually simplified to the point where they no longer contained any figurative elements.
Tilbage var et rent maleri, hvor Viggo Jensens fine kolorisme fik mulighed for at udfolde sig. 
What was left was pure painting, which allowed Viggo Jensen's fine sense of colour to unfold fully.
Det er en poetisk, stilfærdig men samtidig meget rig farvekunst, hvor dæmpede nuancer af grønt, rødt, brunt, gult og gråt dominerer. 
It is a poetic, unobtrusive, yet at the same time very rich art of colour dominated by subdued nuances of green, red, brown, yellow and grey.
Og selvom Viggo Jensens maleri har sluppet figurationen, kan man stadig se, at hans udgangspunkt er naturen og naturiagttagelsen. 
And although Viggo Jensen's painting has abandoned figuration, it is still obvious that his starting point is nature and the observation of nature.
Farverne er naturens egne, og billederne kan ses som blade eller græs betragtet gennem et forstørrelsesglas - et naturens mikrokosmos. 
The colours are nature's own, and the paintings can be seen as leaves or grass viewed through a magnifying glass - a microcosm of nature.
Selv udtrykker Viggo Jensen det på den måde, at han ikke selv føler ”... at der er noget skel mellem mine abstrakte og mine naturalistiske billeder”. 
Or, as Viggo Jensen expressed it himself, he did not feel "... that there is any distinction between my abstract and my naturalistic paintings".
Viggo Jensens maleri er rent maleri, der kun har sig selv som formål. 
Viggo Jensen's painting is pure painting, an end in itself.
