Mogens Ballin

1871–1914 (age 43)

Biography

Mogens Ballin devoted himself to the art of the goldsmith, shaping metal and enamel with a delicate hand and allowing craft and painting to inform one another as he explored form, light, and colour.

He encouraged apprentices and friends, sharing his belief that everyday objects could hold beauty, and he is remembered at Assistens Cemetery for the calm presence he brought to atelier and community alike.
