Drachmann, Holger Henrik Herholdt (1846–1908)

Danish poet and novelist. His finest work is his lyrical poetry, often dedicated to one of his many loves. He published his first volume, Digte/Poems, (1872), and his later verse includes Daempede Melodier/Muted Tunes (1875) and Sangenes Bog/The Book of Songs (1889). He also wrote numerous novels and stories of his travels as well as several melodramas.

Born in Copenhagen, Drachmann was originally a painter, especially of sea pictures, and he constantly returned to this subject in his writings.
