Emmy Thornam

Emmy Marie Caroline Thornam (1852–1935) was a self-supporting Danish artist who specialized in flower painting. Initially trained in landscaping, she was later a student of the Danish flower-painter Oluf August Hermansen before completing her studies in Paris under the French flower painter Pierre Bourgogne. In later life, she wrote novels as well as her own memoirs. Her paintings are in the collections of several Danish museums. Her younger sister, Ludovica Thornam, is also remembered as a painter.
