In Krøyer's early years in Skagen he and<br />
Marie rented a modest house owned by a local<br />
woman, Mrs. Bentsen. The painter Viggo<br />
Johansen had rented it before and later<br />
Laurits Tuxen took over. (Today the house is<br />
better k<strong>now</strong>n as The Tuxen villa). The<br />
house already had large studio windows so<br />
it was perfect for P. S. Krøyer who immediately<br />
set up his studio and started to paint.<br />
The most well-k<strong>now</strong>n painting from this early<br />
period is Marie Krøyer and the hunting dog<br />
Rap by moonlight on Skagen beach.<br />
