Unknown Danish Academic Art


When researching Danish art following my visit to Copenhagen last year, I came across a website that featured about 20 Danish academic works by unknown artists.  The academy archive from which they came preserved the drawings and paintings, but had no record of the artists' names.  Today I am posting ten of these, starting with a young man waving and holding a short staff.

    Well rendered academic drawing of the Copenhagen school.

  2. It's nice, but I have to wonder if the 1920s Danes had the same sensibilities as the Ancient Greeks / Romans, and were "conservative" about penis girth!

    1. A popular discussion topic... In a cool Danish life studio, I'd be that size...

  3. I am slightly envious at those who have the talent from drawing, it's the attention to detail that amazes me. This is no exception.
