Brøndums spisesal
Brøndums spisesal, Skagens Museum
Historie
Ideen til udsmykning af spisesalen på Brøndums Hotel tilskrives sædvanligvis kunstneren P.S. Krøyer i 1883. En tradition som Krøyer havde oplevet i Frankrig.
Medlemmer af kunstnerkolonien donerede malerier m.v. til hotelejer Degn Brøndums spisesal og som betaling måtte Degn Brøndum diske op med champagne m.v.
Skagens Museum blev stiftet af P.S. Krøyer, Michael Ancher, Laurits Tuxen, hotelejer Degn Brøndum og apoteker Chr. V. Klæbel i 1908 på Brøndums Hotel. Formålet med museet var at beholde kunsten i det miljø hvor den var skabt.
Tanken om at bevare spisesalen er formentlig opstået samtidig.
Da Skagens Museums bygning på Brøndumsvej blev bygget i 1928 designede man et rum med de rette dimensioner, så spisesalen senere kunne overflyttes fra hotellet til museet. Det sket i 1946 efter den sidst af Brøndum søskende var afgået ved døden og krigen var slut.
Siden overflytningen til Skagens Museum har spisesalen været en del af udstillingen med portrætfrisen, malerier, digte af Holger Drachmann og stafferinger på panelerne af Thorvald Bindesbøll.

History
The idea for decorating the dining room at Brøndums Hotel is usually attributed to the artist P.S. Krøyer in 1883. A tradition that Krøyer had experienced in France.
Members of the artists' colony donated paintings etc. to the hotel owner Degn Brøndum's dining room and in payment Degn Brøndum had to serve champagne etc.
Skagens Museum was founded by P.S. Krøyer, Michael Ancher, Laurits Tuxen, hotel owner Degn Brøndum and pharmacist Chr. V. Klæbel in 1908 at Brøndums Hotel. The purpose of the museum was to preserve art in the environment in which it was created.
The idea of preserving the dining room probably arose at the same time.
When the Skagen Museum building on Brøndumsvej was built in 1928, a room with the right dimensions was designed so that the dining room could later be transferred from the hotel to the museum. This happened in 1946 after the last of the Brøndum siblings had died and the war was over.
Since the transfer to Skagens Museum, the dining room has been part of the exhibition, with the portrait frieze, paintings, poems by Holger Drachmann and paintings on the panels by Thorvald Bindesbøll.
Fyens Disconto Kasse (Bank Office)
During the Second World War, some of the paintings from the dining room were stored in Skagen Museum's lighthouse cellar and later, in 1943 and until the end of the war, deposited in a safe deposit box in Fyens Disconto Kasse.
