Carl- Henning Pedersen and Marc Chagall are two unique 20th century artists. They are united by their poetry, imagination and love of this fantastic life. But they come from separate and different cultural backgrounds and each has his own way of interpreting life. Therefore, the editors have found it interesting to confront these two great artists to show the similarities in their immersion in a poetical understanding of the world, and at the same time present them as two widely different artists.

Carl-Hennng Pedersen (1913-2007) was born in Copenhagen. He first exhibited his work in 1936. Pedersen was a founding member of the COBRA group of Expressionist painters and is one of the most important artists of the 20th century in Denmark. Reluctant to sell his work, Pedersen donated more than 3000 drawings, paintings and scuptures to the town of Herning in 1976. The book’s foreword is written by art historian Lotte Korshoj and the book is produced in cooperation with his estate and the Carl-Henning Pedersen and Else Alfelt Museum in Herning.

This book shows the historical background of Ribe Domkirke and the Danish COBRA artist Carl-Henning Pedersen (1913-2007) mosaic work for this historical building in the Hanseatic town of Ribe on the North Sea facing England. "It took Carl-Henning Pedersen four winters to complete the choir's decoration in Ribe Cathedral. I have followed Henning with my camera during this work when the choir's vault was painted and the seven mosaics were created. artists' creative process.It is therefore quite natural to gather this material into a book - try to give an overview of the decoration as a whole and of its creation. The posterity must consider this decoration in a historical light. It's not my job - just to give a little glimpse of an artist's creative energy and devotion to his work.It has been exciting and insightful up close to follow the creative process, and it is with great pleasure that I have undertaken to organize and "create" this book.This book is dedicated to Carl-Henning Pedersen", Sidsel Ramson
