The Frederiksborg Museum was established in the late 1800’s with the intent to focus not only on the past, but also on contemporary portraits as well as paintings and sculptures that historically represent people and events. The collections cover such themes as political change and votes for women (1900 to 1920), literature and science from the same period of time, the German occupation (1940-1945), and the monarchy in the 20th century, and the 1990’S. The informative text lays the groundwork for understanding the political, Social, and economic climate which inspired these works of Art.

This catalogue clearly displays the paintings (mostly oil) of Danish teacher, professional illustrator, and artist Otto Frello. Almost every single one of Frello’s paintings is filled with mystery and hidden allusions that are only gradually revealed to the attentive observer. Although Frello does not consider himself a Surrealist, he was one of only two Danes invited to represent Denmark at a large, international Surrealist exhibition in Bergen, Norway in 1991. Frello’s exciting art can be enjoyed not only for the perfect technical skills, but for the contrasts between good-natured and scary or humorous but disturbing.

Though the collection contains work by notables such as Degas, Manet, Morisot, Cézanne, Rodin, Matisse and Modigliani, it remains relatively unknown to the international public and specialists alike. Also includes lovely work by lesser-known draughtsman such as Carpeaux, Doré, Masson, Jongkind, Del Marle, and others. This unique collection is attributed to the energetic efforts of art collectors Johannes Rump and Herbert Melbye.

Being the third book devoted to French drawings within a volume of five in the series entitled Drawings in Swedish Public Collections, this catalog is a testament to the strong links between Swedish and French culture. No less that 534 drawings are exhibited here by such notables as Prudhon, David, Delacroix, Géricault, Hugo, Millet, Daumier, Morisot, Bonnard, Vuillard, Renoir, Gauguin, Degas, and Lorrain. This extensive collection of the works of such renowed artists is fundamental to any research of French art.
