Original – Lars Kruse (1828–1894) was a fisherman from Skagen in the far north of Jutland, Denmark. He is remembered not only for his heroic rescues but for his portraits painted by Michael Ancher and an account of his mistreatment by Holger Drachmann.

Reason

Good depiction of the individual; EV is derived from this as the individual is notable in part for the paintings by Michael Ancher.
