"Skuespillerfrokost" (English: "The Actors' Lunch") is a renowned painting by the Danish artist Michael Ancher, a prominent figure of the Skagen Painters—a group of Scandinavian artists who gathered in the village of Skagen, Denmark, at the end of the 19th century. This work of art, completed in 1903, is a testament to Ancher's fascination with the local community and his interest in capturing social interactions.

The painting depicts a lively scene of Danish actors gathered around a lunch table at the Brøndums Hotel, a popular meeting place for the Skagen artists. The composition is characterized by Ancher's adept use of light and shadow, which brings a sense of vitality and realism to the convivial gathering. The actors are portrayed in a moment of leisure, engaging in conversation and enjoying the camaraderie that was typical of the artistic community in Skagen.

"Skuespillerfrokost" is notable for its portrayal of several well-known figures of the time, including the actress Johanne Luise Heiberg, who is featured prominently at the table. Ancher's attention to detail in the facial expressions and body language of his subjects lends a narrative quality to the work, inviting viewers to contemplate the stories and relationships unfolding within the scene.

The painting is not only a celebration of the cultural life of Skagen but also an example of Ancher's skillful rendering of group dynamics and his contribution to the genre of genre painting—scenes of everyday life. "Skuespillerfrokost" remains an important piece in the oeuvre of Michael Ancher and is held in high regard for its historical and artistic significance, offering insight into the cultural milieu of the Skagen Painters and the broader cultural landscape of Denmark at the turn of the century.
