REALISM


Full-size picture
Among other highly profiled artists from the second half of the 19th century, the social realists L.A. Ring, H.A.Brendekilde and Hans Smidth are strongly represented in the permanent hanging.

One of the most important pieces in this section is L.A. Rings peculiar painting of a summer day by Roskilde fiord, 1900. It is extremely realistic but at the same time charged with symbolical meaning.
