註釋The impressive scope of the works of the great Danish painter Christoffer W. Eckersberg is on display in this generously illustrated monograph that features diverse perspectives from leading scholars around the world. One of the most important and influential painters of the 19th century, Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg (1783 - 1853) was a prominent figure in the so-called Golden Age of Danish Art.
A painter of great diversity, his art spans many genres, from
Romanticism and Neoclassicism to Naturalism and Realism.
Eckersberg was also a pioneer of the art of plein air painting.
This book offers an in-depth examination of C. W. Eckersberg's
works, identifying their dualistic nature, as the painter strove for
a true representation of reality while aiming to impose structure
and order to the world around him. Generously illustrated, the
book features works from every period of the painter's career
while authoritative essays address C. W. Eckersberg's approach
to nature and the human body, the storytelling aspect of his
work, and his paintings' reception by audiences throughout
Europe and America.
