Abstract

Petra Djurhuus is the first Faroese to gain education within the field of
conservation and museum work. She became part of Føroya forngripagoymsla
(the Faroese Museum) when it was re-established in 1928 og soon became a
leading force in the reorganization and development of the museum.
Nevertheless, Petra Djurhuus is quite absent in the Faroese museum history. The
aim of this paper is to examine her diverse work within the field and to reflect on
her position as a woman in the museum world at that time. Petra Djurhuus
studied in Denmark and had strong ties with colleagues from Danish museums.
It therefore offers relevant context to view her story in a larger museal
framework focusing on women working at Danish museums in the early 20th
century.
