  • Artlibraries.Net and the Future of Art Bibliography Conference (6Th Artlibraries.Net General Meeting)
    artlibraries.net and the Future of Art Bibliography conference (6th artlibraries.net general meeting) Copenhagen, October 9-11, 2014 Host: Danmarks Kunstbibliotek (Danish National Art Library), (www.kunstbib.dk) The conference will take place in the Assembly Hall of Charlottenborg Palace Kongens Nytorf 1, DK-1050 Copenhagen K (adjacent to Danmarks Kunstbibliotek) After the US launch of the new WorldCat-based ‘Art Discovery Group Catalogue’ (http://artlibraries.worldcat.org/) at the ARLIS/NA conference in May 2014 in Washington, the Copenhagen meeting will be the occasion to present and to discuss this new tool extensively in Europe. The project group will give an update on the state of development, including crucial topics such as specialized bibliographical databases to be included, additional webpages providing information on the project and the participating institutions, and the forthcoming new WorldCat interface. The conference shall also be the occasion to discuss the future administration of the Art Discovery Group Catalogue after the end of the project implementation phase in 2015. We expect OCLC representatives to be present. On the other hand, the conference will of course serve to discuss and define the conclusions to be drawn for the international meta catalogue artlibraries.net (www.artlibraries.net), the main question being: Shall artlibraries.net survive in the long run or shall the Art Discovery Group Catalogue replace it eventually? This conference is the sixth in the series of bi-annual international artlibraries.net general conferences and the third (after Lisbon and Paris) to be organized together with the Future of Art Bibliography (FAB) project initiated by the Getty Research Institute.

Significant cross-fertilization of ideas occurred between the Copenhagen Academy and the two key centres of Romantic thought in Germany, namely the Hamburg and Dresden Academies. Rørbye entered the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen in 1819, studying under Christian August Lorentzen. In 1825 he joined the class of Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg and became his private pupil. He was known as an inveterate traveller, exploring Norway, touring extensively in Germany, France and Italy and travelling as far east as Greece and Turkey. He finally returned to Copenhagen in 1841.1 Christian August Lorentzen (1746 Sønderborg - Copenhagen 1828) was appointed professor at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen in 1803, succeeding Jens Juel. In 1827, only a year before Lorentzen’s death, Rørbye painted a portrait of the aged art professor.

TWO VISITS TO DENMARK TWO VISITS TO DENMARK 1872, 1874 BY EDMUND GOSSE LONDON SMITH, ELDER, & CO., 15 WATERLOO PLACE 1911 All rights reserved TO SIDNEY LOW PREFACE THIS little volume makes no pretence at being a record of adventure or a guide to the tourist. The author of it, as he hopes, has nowhere denned his own fugitive and unimportant silhouette, while endeavouring to paint emphatically the figures amongst whom, with so much emotion, he had the privilege of moving. Nor has he, in any instance, he believes, lingered to describe what the ordinary visitor may see under the competent guidance of a Baedeker. What he has tried to convey is an impression of the moral and intellec- tual aspect of one of the smallest, but one of the most cultivated countries of Europe, as he saw it nearly forty years ago. Where so many travellers give us a picture of sport or a succession of land- scapes, he has sought to present the portrait of a condition of national culture. That the painting had to be superficial is obvious, that it was made at first-hand is evident the author equally ; and cannot help hoping that the freshness of the impression may in some measure be held to weigh against its slightness.

  • A Tree in the Forest of Ermelunden, Denmark Pencil
    Carl Ludvig MESSMANN (Copenhagen 1826 - Gothenburg 1893) A Tree in the Forest of Ermelunden, Denmark Pencil. Signed and dated L Messmann d 1 Mai 1846 Ermelund at the lower centre. Signed L Messmann /1 / at the lower right. Inscribed L. Messmann. del 1846. on the old mount. 307 x 365 mm. (12 1/8 x 14 3/8 in.) The small forest of Ermelunden, an area of about seventy hectares, lies in the northern suburbs of Copenhagen. Artist description: Very little is known of the Danish landscape draughtsman, painter and lithographer Carl Ludvig Ferdinand Messmann. In 1840, at the age of fourteen, he enrolled at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts (the Kunstakadamiet) in Copenhagen, where he remained until January 1845. He also trained as a lithographer at the Copenhagen lithography workshop Em. Bærentzen & Co. Among Messmann’s favoured subjects were the countryside in and around the Danish capital. He often worked in the Frederiksberg Gardens and the forest of Charlottenlund, on the shores of the Øresund north of Copenhagen, as well as elsewhere in North Zealand, producing drawings, nature studies and lithographs imbued with a romantic sensibility and an appreciation of nature. Messmann also worked in the Danish towns of Aalborg, Kolding, Ribe, Tønder and elsewhere in the late 1840s. In 1848 he volunteered for service in the First Schleswig War between Denmark and Germany, serving in Jutland and Funen, but the following year was allowed to be discharged since his wife had just had their first child. In 1849 he and his family moved to Frederiksberg, on the outskirts of Copenhagen.
