Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg is the most important painter of of Danish painting's "Golden Age". Young Pupil of David, at 3, rue de Beaune in Paris, he remained faithful to Neo-Classicism.
The Nathanson Family by CW Eckersberg is one of the most striking paintings in the National Gallery of Denmark.
Our enlarged academic copy of the 2 main characters on this painting, the Mother and the eldest Daughter, monumentally poses the Empire ideal in painting, through expression, posture and colors.
The canvas bears the stamp of the National Gallery of Denmark on the reverse.
