Portraitist Ernest Ipsen was born near Boston to Danish parents. His father, Ludvig S. Ipsen, was an architect with a genius for design, and his mother was a well-known musician with a beautiful voice. The families of both were closely connected with the Danish court, and young Ernest was sent to the Royal Academy in Copenhagen after his preliminary training in Boston. There, he speedily won a prize for his figure works, and a scholarship in life painting.
