	Historie
		Bertel Thorvaldsen udførte knap 550 skulpturer, relieffer og portrætbuster.
		Den tekniske fremgangsmåde ved fremstillingen af en skulptur i marmor eller bronze gjorde, at der altid - når den færdige skulptur var blevet afleveret til sin køber - blev en model i gips i fuld størrelse stående tilbage i atelieret.
		Når dertil kommer de mange skitser i mindre størrelse til skulpturerne og de omfattende samlinger af malerier, tegninger, kobberstik, antikke genstande, bøger og meget andet, som Thorvaldsen erhvervede sig igennem mange år, kan man forstå, at han selv har gjort sig tanker om, hvad der skulle blive af det hele.

		Thorvaldsen was not a profound observer of character, and his work has been criticized by some modern critics for being rather cold and devoid of feeling.
		However, Thorvaldsen still deserves to be ranked alongside Canova and John Flaxman as one of the greatest Neoclassical sculptors.

		When Riise approached the museum, the daguerreotype was in the possession of the photographer to the Swedish royal court, Johannes Jaeger, and Riise was acting on his behalf.
		As this was not the case, we could be led to believe that the impression of Thorvaldsen given by the daguerreotype was at total odds with the one given by the plentiful supply of other visual and literary representations of the great sculptor.
		Fortunately, Thorvaldsens Museum was offered the daguerreotype again at a later date, and purchased it in 1909.

		Thorvaldsen's Christus is easy to find, but Bloch's paintings and etchings are scattered throughout numerous parish churches and museums in Denmark and southern Sweden.
