"Skagen Sønderstrand. Maj" (Skagen South Beach. May) is an oil painting by Danish artist Carl Locher, a prominent figure in the Skagen Painters, a group of Scandinavian artists who gathered in the village of Skagen, Denmark, at the end of the 19th century. This painting, created in 1883, captures the distinctive light and landscape of the area, which was a central theme in the works of the Skagen Painters.

The painting depicts a serene view of the beach at Skagen, with the characteristic fine white sand and the North Sea in the distance. It is set in the month of May, as indicated by the title, and reflects the tranquility and subtle beauty of the pre-summer season. The composition is notable for its clear horizon line and the expansive sky, which takes up a significant portion of the canvas, a common feature in Locher's seascapes. The use of light and shadow, as well as the naturalistic color palette, demonstrates Locher's skill in capturing the unique atmosphere of Skagen's coastal environment.

Carl Locher (1851-1915) was trained at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and was influenced by his contemporaries in the Skagen community, including P.S. Krøyer and Michael Ancher. Locher was particularly known for his maritime scenes and his ability to depict the interaction between the sea and the rugged landscapes of Denmark's northernmost point.

"Skagen Sønderstrand. Maj" is considered an important work within Locher's oeuvre and the broader context of the Skagen Painters' movement. It exemplifies the group's dedication to plein air painting and their fascination with the unique natural light of the region. The painting is not only a testament to Locher's artistic prowess but also serves as a historical document of the picturesque Skagen landscape during the late 19th century.
