A vibrant survey of visual culture in Golden Age Denmark
(1801-1864) Following the disastrous outcome of the Napoleonic Wars
and national bankruptcy, Denmark affected a remarkable cultural
renaissance, spawning such major talents as Hans Christian
Andersen, Soren Kierkegaard and Hans Christian Orsted. The Golden
Age, roughly spanning the first half of the nineteenth century,
produced defining images of a peaceful and ordered society as the
emerging Copenhagen bourgeoisie asserted a taste for portraits,
urban scenes and landscapes that embraced their lifestyles. Artists
such as Christen Kobke and C. W. Eckersberg turned their attentions
to the people, traditions and customs of their land, encapsulating
the quintessence of this celebrated period of cultural richness.
Danish Golden Age Painting examines the vital role played by the
visual arts within the wider context of the era's social,
political, intellectual, scientific, artistic and cultural
achievements. Drawing on the best of established and contemporary
Danish scholarship, it presents an innovative survey of Danish
Golden Age art.
