Little preview for IKNBS chapter 8 ♡

(I'm going to post it this weekend, it's like soooo close to done and it's the longest one so far 👀 )

Catch up here if you want to :)

The first postcard arrives after two days. From then on, they arrive every other day. He posts them in envelopes with no sender but you assume the Siblings sorting the mail with their knack for gossip recognise his penmanship anyway.

The first one is from Copenhagen, from the Statens Museum for Kunst, the Danish National Gallery. The postcard shows the painting Christ in the Realm of the Dead by Joakim Skovgaard, a Danish painter, and you appreciate that he chose a countryman. It seems odd that he would stop by a museum just to acquire a postcard. You can’t imagine that he has a lot of time for sight-seeing, so you wonder if he just ran into the museum, got the card and then made the bus stop by a postbox to send it out as fast as he can.

Before you read, you admire his handwriting. In a solid block of text it looks especially beautiful. The minuscules are small and narrow, the majuscules sticking out more but the lines are smooth and well-curved. You can tell that he does a lot of writing on the daily because there are no errors, no crossed out words. The ink he used is black, probably from a fountain pen, and your eyes get caught by the C with which he signed it, the line drawn with just a little more force than the others.

Mia ‘strella,

I hope you are well. I know we did not part on the best terms, cara, but I am thinking about you constantly to the point where I find it hard to concentrate. The ghouls make fun of me when I drift off on the bus. 

Copenhagen is beautiful, the abbey here is in good shape and the Siblings very eager to meet their new Papa. I think they will like our show tonight. Please, can you let me know how you are doing?

The second postcard, arriving two days later, comes from the Alte Nationalgalerie in Berlin. It’s the painting Woman at a Window by Caspar David Friedrich, a woman gazing outside with her back turned towards the observer. You immediately know why he picked it.

Mia ‘strella, 

today, choosing a card was very easy. I spotted this in the gift shop and it reminded me of you. I think about sitting by the window with you often, how you shared your apple with me and held my hand. I think it was then that I realized, if anyone could care for someone like me, it would be you.

Please, I need to know that you are well.

C.

Lene Adler Petersen (b. Jan. 13, 1944) is a Danish artist, trained at Det Jyske Kunstakademi and the Royal Academy in Copenhagen in the 1960s. She and her husband Bjørn Nørgaard were leading members of the Eks-skolen group and did happenings and action art in all media, including film, throughout the 70s.

In the 80s she spent time in New York, developing a Neo-Expressionist style and drawing inspiration from Mexican murals and ceramics. She did serial art, such as the example here:

Indendøre/Indoors, 1982 - oil tempura on canvas (SMK)
