2023 Donation of work of art

Maria, Rome, 1837

Photo of Wilhelm Marstrands Maria, Rom, donated to the Nivaagaard Collection.

In a frontal view, a young woman meets the beholder’s gaze straight on, her arms folded behind her head. The Golden Age artist Wilhelm Marstrand’s Maria is clearly posing as instructed by the great painter, but the artwork is also interesting from a modern-day gender-conscious perspective.

2022 DECORATIVE PROJECT

A new bridge between Copenhagen and Paris

John Kører Dronning Louises Bro 2022 Det Danske Studenterhus i Paris Ny bro mellem København og Paris

John Kørner’s painting Dronning Louises Bro (Queen Louise’s Bridge) was recently installed at the Danish Student House in Paris. The piece touches on something that is immediately recognizable to many of the Danish students staying at the residence. At the same time, it points far beyond its central Copenhagen location and all the way to Paris.
