Abstract
Mankato, Minnesota, was thrilled. A famous artist had come to town with his palette, easel, and painter's smock, and people noticed. The Mankato Free Press ran a story under a bold headline:
Sir Gyde Pedersen, Artist of Denmark
The reporter gushed away for two columns on the delight of having in their midst a European artist who had been knighted by a king.1
