Über den Ort

A dedicated tobacco merchant assembled this Danish fine art gallery inside former city ramparts.

Heinrich and Pauline Hirschsprung built a private compilation of domestic paintings through personal friendships with Skagen masters and literary figures like Holger Drachmann and Peder Severin Krøyer. The founders chose to donate their entire inventory to the state on the condition that the public authorities build a custom venue.

Architect Hermann Baagøe Storck designed a sober freestanding structure in Østre Anlæg park to reject the prevailing historicist styles of the era. Art historian Emil Hannover organized the interior galleries to display Golden Age canvasses alongside paintings by Vilhelm Hammershøi, the Ancher family, and Joakim Skovgaard.
