Helga is a 1853 oil by Fritz Thomsen, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
In the painting, a horse stands in a stable, facing right. The horse is brown with a darker mane and tail. It has a long neck and a small head. The stable is dimly lit, with a hay pile in the foreground. The walls are made of wood, and there is a doorway on the left side. The horse appears to be looking at something outside the stable. The atmosphere is quiet and peaceful. The painting is done in oil paint, which gives it a rich and textured look. If you're interested in learning more about this style of painting, you might want to look up the technique of chiaroscuro.
Fritz Thomsen (1819–1891) was an artist, born in Broager.
