The Architecture of the Glyptotek 1st edition

The New Carlsberg Glyptotek was established by brewer Carl Jacobsen in 1897 as a venue for the Danes to enjoy his ever-expanding collection of contemporary art. The building was drawn by Vilhelm Dahlerup and has since been extended with buildings by Hack Kampmann in 1906 and Henning Larsen in 2006.
The world famous Danish museum includes antique sculptures from ancient cultures around the Mediterranean as well as more modern sculptures and an extensive collection of French impressionist, Post-impressionist, and Danish Golden Age paintings.
The book provides thorough information on the history and architecture of the Glyptotek, as well as an aesthetic, atmospheric depiction of the building in relation to the art it contains. It is richly illustrated with new original photos by photographer Anders Sune Berg and architectural drawings, historical photos, and additional source material.
