Helvig Kinch
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Helvig Agnete Kinch née Amsinck (1872–1956) was a Danish artist who specialized in painting animals, especially horses. In the early 20th-century, she participated in archaeological research near Lindos on the island of Rhodes, creating landscapes of the area and illustrating the artefacts discovered there. Together with Marie Henriques, in 1916 she established the Danish Society of Female Artists (Kvindelige Kunstneres Samfund) to encourage women artists to exhibit their works.[1][2][3]
