Emma Alice Thomsen née Lange (21 November 1863 – 15 January 1910) was an attractive Danish actress who performed mainly in Vaudeville productions at the Royal Danish Theatre in Copenhagen. Described as "the world's most beautiful women" by the Norwegian painter Christian Krohg, she was given a wider repertoire than would normally have been possible for an actress without formal training, thanks in part to her sweet singing voice. She progressed over the years, performing in more serious works, for example as Portia in Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice and Elisabeth in Heiberg's Elverhøj.[1][2]
