Christen Kobke: Danish Master of Light

The most exhaustive selection of paintings by the pre-eminent Danish painter (1810-1848) ever to be shown outside Denmark, with around 40 of his works on display. Kobke's characteristically elegant composition and clean, luminous treatment of light and colour marked him out as one of the foremost painters of Denmark's Golden Age.
