Ordrupgaard

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ordrupgaard is a state-owned art museum in Denmark. It is located in Charlottenlund, near Copenhagen. Ordrupgaard's collection features 19th-century Danish and French art, including groups of works by important Romantic, Realist, and Impressionist painters—as well as Paul Gauguin. Wilhelm and Henny Hansen obtained many of the collection's pieces in the early 20th century, and the collection is still displayed in its original setting in what was the Hansens' mansion. Also notable is the recent extension by Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid.
