This survey of Danish art identifies its distinctive character and traces the influences that helped to shape it. Here are the major national artists, from the Golden Age in the 19th century and the paintings of Eckersberg and Købke, to the Skagen painters, including Krøyer and Ancher, to Hammershøi, Willumsen, Mortensen, Asger Jorn and Michael Kvium, among many others. An additional section includes a survey of contemporary Danish crafts: ceramics, glass, silver and textiles.
