This catalogue contains over one hundred drawings by Danish artists of the Romantic period that can be found in the Royal Museum of Fine Arts, Copenhagen. The drawings have certain characteristics which reflect the Danish temperament, a passive disposition which shuns strong emotions. These painters, which include Jens Juel, Wilhelm Marstrand, Christen Købke and many more, look at nature and daily life around them with poetic simplicity. A fascinating introduction by Hans Edvard Nørregärd-Nielsen lays the groundwork for understanding the Danish Golden Age of Art
