Denmark
Monday 28th September, mid-morning, cool and still, unbroken grey haze
Golden Age pictures in the Glypotek. These pictures were one of the reasons I wanted to go to the Copenhagen con (there's always an ulterior motive, I'm afraid). The ones I like are usually very small, very rural; almost always very quiet, very still. The subject is the least important thing, portrait of a roadside peddler, portrait of a cow or a horse, given the same respect. I was sorry not to see more Hammershoi, but very interested to learn more about the women painters of his period, in the Hirschsprung
Of course I also paid my respects to Kierkegaard. & here, in rough form, is the Either/Or presentation posted online:
