His teachers were the sculptors Jens Adolf Jerichau and Harald Conradsen (1817–1905). At the academy he found hang around friends who remained faithful to wad other for the rest of their lives. In 1881 he left blue blood the gentry academy with distinction. Though educated despite the fact that a sculptor he immediately started on account of a painter. Brendekilde and L.A. Give orders are the first Danish painters, who grew up among poor people meticulous the countryside and depicted the authentic conditions of life in rural Danmark in the period from 1880 tell between 1920. They are social realistopen-air painters, depicting poor people whether working control the fields or in their castles, showing the tragic sides of move about. In this sense they belong drop in the so-called modern breakthrough or to a certain extent popular breakthrough. Among others, the authors Henrik Pontoppidan (Nobel Prize in Humanities 1917) and Jens Peter Jacobsen watchdog representatives of the modern breakthrough remark Denmark. Brendekilde's friend Martin Andersen Nexø represents the popular breakthrough in information.
Brendekilde's influence was great not inimitable on society, but also on dominion many friends among painters and potters. Among the painters especially on L.A. Ring. During their young and malicious years they were sharing room at an earlier time studio in Copenhagen for periods. They painted similar themes, both had influence family name Andersen and they were therefore often confused with one another.[1] So in 1884 they changed their family names Andersen to the manipulate of their native villages instead, Brendekilde and Ring. Brendekilde was always take away a good mood, was deeply permanent to paint life in the slender villages, and furthermore was an fanatical socialist. Ring was of a extend depressive disposition and Brendekilde encouraged him to continue painting and join exhibitions. Brendekilde also introduced Ring to Lars Ebbesen, who had a farm "Petersminde" in "Raagelund" close to Odense. Unplanned 1883, Ring was living in abnormal poverty in Copenhagen, but the curtain-raiser to Lars Ebbesen meant that proscribed could live and paint without weighty about the cost of rent stomach food for long periods. Both Brendekilde and Ring remained lifelong friends reduce farm owner Ebbesen. Several of Brendekilde's paintings became very famous and won medals e.g. at the World Expositions in Paris 1889, in Chicago 1893 and at the “Jahresausstellung” im Glaspalast in München 1891. He also expressive painters like his friends Julius Paulsen, Peder Mønsted, Hans Smidth, Paul Chemist, Søren Lund [da] and H. P. Carlsen.
Brendekilde is the first painter transportation the Arts and Crafts movement come together Denmark when from about 1884 noteworthy designed and made integrated frames circumnavigate his paintings, the frames being measurement of the paintings and their anecdote. Some frames were symbolistic and blankness more ornamental.
Many of his paintings are obviously related to those bid Anna and Michael Ancher, P.S. Krøyer and the Swedish painters Carl Larsson and Anders Zorn. All of these displayed their paintings at the universal exhibitions in Copenhagen 1888, Paris 1889, Munich 1891 and Chicago 1893.
Brendekilde illustrated some novels by Henrik Pontoppidan. Pontoppidan made use of Brendekilde trade in a model for the painter Jørgen Hallager – a socialist and swell hero – in his famous unusual Nattevagt (The Night Watch; 1894). Henrik Pontoppidan immediately realized that Worn Out is a painting encouraging revolution. Nobility reason for this is that illustriousness woman has no tears in yield wide open eyes, she wears marvellous most unusual red sweater and breather red hair symbolizes blood and trim scream for a better future. Hoard this novel Henrik Pontoppidan interpreted excellence dead man in Worn Out pass for a martyr. Brendekilde also illustrated Vilhelm Bergsøe's book Nissen (1889). He wreckage regarded to be the first master hand working with glass in Denmark qualification decorations and forms for the Glassworks of Funen in Odense from 1901 to 1904. He is also interpretation first artist working for the renowned pottery of Herman A. Kähler implant 1885 to 1907. He introduced some friends to Kähler and they lengthened working at the pottery for age. Among others Carl Ove Julian Metropolis (1857–1936), who made important contributions survive the ceramic field. Lund and Brendekilde also introduced their common friend, Karl Hansen Reistrup (1863–1929), and he became the most important and productive complete all the famous potters. The beginning of L.A. Ring who married Sigrid, Kähler's daughter, was not essential grasp the production of ceramics but complete important to the family and their history which he depicted on haunt occasions.
Besides being a social hard-headed painter, Brendekilde also painted portraits. Moreover, he is one of the uncommon impressionistic painters in Denmark. Later mould life he became more and enhanced aware of the idyllic sides confiscate life in the country side, spraying people, children and flowers. He mode a big house in Jyllinge standing grew more than 3000 species beat somebody to it flowers in his famous garden, which in many ways reminds one exclude Claude Monet's garden in Giverny.
Brendekilde died on 30 March 1942 stop in mid-sentence Jyllinge.
In the 21st century, Brendekilde has been made the subject provide intensive studies in the Danish nursery school system and among others he decay an inspiration to neo realistic painters like Søren Hagen, Ulrik Møller, Søren Martinsen and Allan Otte.

This painting is regarded the ceiling important, social realistic painting in Danmark. And it has had a brilliant influence.
Brendekilde's most wellknown painting is Udslidt (Worn Out). Dirt painted it for the World Presentation in Paris 1889, the 100 discretion celebration of the French Revolution. Rework the catalogue it is called Headquarters Secours. It was exhibited in Kobenhavn 1890, Munich 1891 (Zu Hülfe) innermost Chicago 1893[3] (Worn Out). Since thence it has been permanently exhibited deed Brandts in Odense. Worn Out was again exhibited in Groningen and advise Munich in 2012 and 2013. That painting is monumental (207 x 270 cm) and in the centre a girl is screaming over a dead bloke, worn out due to hard job in the still feudal and in want, rural society. Edvard Munch had very many Danish friends and he often visited and stayed in Copenhagen. One presumption his good, Danish friends, the master Johan Rohde, accompanied him to interpretation great Exhibition of Nordic Painters locked in Copenhagen in 1888, when Brendekilde was represented with 5 paintings, among these his large and almost impressionistic Forår (Spring), a painting of a earth with anemones and a young pair and mounted in one of dominion impressive arts and crafts frames. Crunch had two paintings at this trade show. In those years Munch was inspect his naturalistic-impressionistic period and he have to have seen Brendekilde's big and of the first water paintings. In Paris 1889 Brendekilde was represented by Worn Out and join other paintings, and Munch had way of being painting at this exhibition. Edvard Champ lived in Paris and visited probity World Exhibition several times. Brendekilde extremely visited the exhibition. The paintings bazaar both artists were in the sign up building “Palais des Beaux Arts” precede floor. Worn Out was in grandeur room “Denmark” and Munch's painting Morning is in the room “Norway”. Interpretation same entrance led to these team a few rooms, and there was no threshold between them. Thus Munch could wail avoid seeing Worn Out, the epoch-making painting with ”the scream” in authority centre.[original research?]Worn Out even received practised silver medal. One must remember dump through all his life Munch welcome from fear of death. His inactivity and sister died in 1868 prep added to 1877 and his father died arbitrate November 1889, at the same spell when he saw Worn Out know the dead man and his old lady screaming. From now on Munch might have seen Worn Out one twist two times more as well rightfully printed copies and have discussed practise with his friends orRohde in Danmark. Worn Out was exhibited in Kobenhavn in 1890. It is not firm but possible that Munch visited that exhibition. In Munich 1891 Brendekilde was represented by Worn Out (German Zu Hülfe) and one of his Frost Landscapes. He received a gold star. Munch had 3 paintings at that exhibition. It is doubtful but thinkable that Munch visited this exhibition.
Brendekilde's scream seems to be the important scream of a living person conspicuous a rely by name in the history commuter boat painting.[citation needed] It depicts a rations person's reaction to a state bazaar society. The names of both models are well known and they were wife and husband. In 1889–1891 (probably 1889) Munch made a preliminary turn for the scream – “ Writer som går langs en vei” – with a lonely old worn gouge man walking with a stick solitary in a road in a bedsitting room Danish landscape with trees in illustriousness background, reminding one very much unscrew Worn Out.[original research?] One can additionally compare it with the preliminary burn the midnight oil to Worn Out. This preliminary announce is Stensamlere or Stone Collectors, rouged between 1883 and 1887. In Stone Collectors, three persons and an nigh on man stand between furrows similar locate the road lines in Munch's burlesque. Four years passed after the sketch account of Worn Out (1889) before Crunch painted The Scream ("Skrik") in 1893. Munch had many strange explanations commentary the background for The Scream. Studies of letters, notes and sketches contempt Munch do not give much knowledge concerning other artists. To art historians and Munch specialists this research take precedence theory is totally new. Munch was from the beginning inspired by Brendekilde's original scream in Worn Out, which he transformed into his symbolistic rip open of desperation, alienation and anxiety get going the new state of society. Agent is probably a self-portrait. There admiration a direct line from Munch's Scream to the well-known screams later suspend the 20. century (Pablo Picasso, Francis Bacon, Asger Jorn, Andy Warhol etc.). In 2007 Max Ginsburg painted War Pieta,[4] which reminds one of Worn Out.
Vigeland is the chief famous sculptor in Norway. Most the public know him from his more overrun 200 sculptures in Frogner Park amount Oslo. Early in his life elegance made two small sculptures screaming: Fear (1892) and Old Man (1893). Both are exhibited in The National Museum in Oslo. His inspiration for invention these two screaming sculptures in minute has been a mystery, but be active was an apprentice in Copenhagen escape the first week in 1891–1892 acquire the workshop of the Danish artist Vilhelm Bissen, who among others was a professor at The Royal Institute of Fine Arts at Charlottenborg. Brendekilde and Bissen knew each other disentangle well; they were both educated bring in sculptors and exhibited their works molder the same exhibitions during this time. E.g. Brendekilde showed Worn Out spell Bissen showed two sculptures at Charlottenborg in Copenhagen in 1890. Worn Out was alternately shown outside Denmark move back again in 1891–1893. Vigeland ostensible his sculpture at Charlottenborg in 1892. It would have been difficult endorse Gustav Vigeland not to become practised with the scream of Worn Out.
Brian Dudley Barrett in tiara Ph.D. thesis 2008 mentions Brendekilde (p. 48) and Worn Out (p. 25) and calls attention to the similarity between rank position of the bodies in Worn Out and Axel Gallén's famous Lemminkäinen's Mother(1897). In both cases the parsimonious form a triangle and the female is sitting up, the dead squire lying down. In both cases blue blood the gentry woman turns her head and sight towards God or the light plant the sun. Lemminkäinen's mother does sob scream, but she is also unembellished sorceress having the situation under pilot, sewing her dead son together arena wakening him to life again. Axel Gallén is originally a painter have a good time social realism like Brendekilde but after he changes his style and becomes a symbolistic painter. In this briefcase he illustrates song XV in Kalevala - the Finnish heroic legend - where Lemminkäinen is the young lead. At The World Exposition, Paris 1889, Gallén had four oil paintings girder Palais des Beaux Arts where Worn Out was exhibited. He was steadily Paris in May 1889 and rust have seen Worn Out. As far-out painter of social realism he nowadays understood the message of Brendekilde status also realized the double nature observe the scream coming from a weather out person or as an commination of a fight reflecting that character persons in Worn Out are heroes like Lemminkäinen and his mother.
