“Emigrants at Larsens Plads” by Petersen (1841-1911) is one of the most popular paintings in the Art Museum of Aarhus. It was painted in 1890 and already the following year it came to Aarhus. He has a keen eye for details, and because of the naturalistic qualities of the painting - it almost looks like a photograph - it has found its way to a large number of history books as an historical document. The essay sets out to question this use of painting by looking at his background in the aftermath of the tradition of the so-called Golden Age of Danish Painting, and goes on to take a closer look at the painter’s working method, technique, and artistic aims.
