William Kyhn is one of the most important artists in Danish art. He is especially known for his open-air paintings of the Danish landscape that winds itself in hill and valley with scenic woods, lakes and streams. In comparison with the other Golden Age landscape painters, Kyhn is without a doubt the most versatile in his pictorial coverage of the Danish nature: He has painted many diverse landscape subjects ranging from very different weather and conditions of light and through all four seasons. Perhaps it is precisely this direct relationship with the landscape that makes his images as current and alive today? The book illustrates and dives into Kyhn’s life and his artistic production and importance to the Danish art world. The result is a new and important discovery regarding one of the most significant artists.
