  Constantin Hansen
Hansen was one of Eckersberg's most prominent pupils at the Copenhagen Academy and this picture dates from his student years (1829-33).
Roed became a close friend of Constantin's, having studied with his portraitist father, Hans Hansen, and entered the Copenhagen Academy under Eckersberg at the age of fourteen.
Constantin spent nine years studying to become an architect and came to painting rather late in life.

Well-known paintings by artists like Constantin Hansen, Wilhelm Marstrand and Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg are shown in new contexts related to Andersen's fairytale universe.
The popular faiytale writer is seen as a kind of pupil of the Danish Golden Age painters in Italy.
Not only did Andersen make use in his writings of the same motifs which inspired the Danish painters - in his encounter with Italy he also gained a new view of the world and literature, in line with the painters' collection of material, their sketches and their focus on the moment.

 DANNISH BIEDERMEIER PAINTING
The pioneering art historian Emil Hannover published a monograph on Købke in 1893, on Eckersberg in 1898 and on Constantin Hansen in 1903.
Where Købke was its genius, Eckersberg was the dominating influence on the age in his role as professor of painting at the Copenhagen Academy.
Constantin Hansen applied it to portraits, Lundbye to landscape, Rørbye to genre and architectural views, and Bendz to the middle-class conversation piece.

It is the sense of seamless integration of the classical in genres that might appear antagonistic that is also evident in the Neapolitan fisherman in C. Hansen's romantic "Scene from the Molo in Naples," of 1839 (fig.
Although Munk does not point this out, the figure is very likely derived from the "Sandalbinder" statue type believed to be of the fourth century B.C., of which there was a good example in Paris and another in Rome in the Capitoline Museum, the latter having been unearthed at Tivoli in 1740.
The final essay, by Hannemarie Ragn Jensen, presents the grand frescoes of the vestibule of the University of Copenhagen painted in 1844-53 by Constantin Hansen and Georg Hilker.

Scandinavian myths and legends made their appearance in visual art as a result of the national awakening in the 1770s, and they were treated by both Abildgaard and Erik Pauelsen.
Later J.L. Lund, Kratzenstein Stub and Eckersberg produced paintings on Nordic subjects for the Academy of Fine Arts, while Constantin Hansen and Lorenz Frølich gave intensive treatment to the legends of the Scandinavian gods and to Danish history.
This decorative art was further developed on a monumental scale in such places as the Entrance Hall in Copenhagen University by Constantin Hansen, H.V. Bissen and Georg Hilker.

In painting, the Golden Age tradition was maintained in the bourgeois classicism of the Eckersberg school, which mingled the French inheritance from J.-L. David with impulses from German Biedermeier and a powerful admixture of Danish National Romanticism.
Among the other Danish pioneers for new trends in the art of the 1880s mention must be made here of Hans Smidth and L.A. Ring, who both went in the direction of distinct social realism, seeking their motifs among farmers and farm workers.
A special position in the pioneering Naturalist art of the 1880s is occupied by the "cattle painter" Theodor Philipsen, who through personal contact with Paul Gauguin developed into the sole Danish Impressionist of his generation.

The art of the first half of the 19th century in Copenhagen was perhaps the greatest achievement of Denmark’s Golden Age.
The sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen and the painter Eckersberg led an artistic renaissance during the Golden Age that produced, with the establishment of an academy in Charlottenborg in 1754, the artists Christen Købke, Jens Juel, Constantin Hansen, Martinus Rørbye, J. Lundbye, Wilhelm Bendz, and Emanuel Larsen to name a few.
The Royal Collections, what was later to become the National Collection after the peaceful transition to a constitutional monarchy, actively supported these new artists, buying these ‘modern’ pictures the moment they were exhibited.
