Description
Bonatzi and Elsie were two well-known people in Skagen. The painters often used them as models. Josef Bonatzi (1845-1913) was a Bohemian shoemaker who came to Skagen in 1885. He built a house "Lyrehuset", of what he could find of materials. After his death the house was used for the Midsummer bonfire. Merry Elsie Hellesen (1842-1920) was a berry picker and a maid. She picked berries for the Ancher, the Locher and the Brøndum families. She lost her sanity when her fiancé drowned a few days before their wedding.

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1927, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 95 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.
