Christian Albrecht Jensen

Óleo sobre lienzo, 82 x 64 cm.

Número de inventario: 0239NMK

Adquirido en 2019. Esta adquisición fue posible gracias a la financiación de la Fundación Aage y Johanne Louis-Hansen y la Fundación Augustinus, la financiación de los testamentos del director Per Vilhelm & Mygge Kolbing-Nielsen y los donantes privados del museo en 2018.

CA Jensen es considerado uno de los mejores retratistas del Siglo de Oro danés. Esta pintura representa a los tres hijos de Bolette y Hans Puggaard: Hans Christopher Wilhelm, Rudolph Christopher y Arnette Marie Bolette. El apellido de soltera de Bolette era Hage, y era hermana del padre de Johannes Hage, Alfred Hage. La hija, María, se casó más tarde con Orla Lehmann.

Es una pintura verdaderamente encantadora. Revestidos en estilo Imperio, los niños están bellamente colocados en una composición piramidal, y las cortinas verdes se corresponden maravillosamente con una serie de pinturas barrocas de nuestra colección al tiempo que resaltan el color complementario contemporáneo en las saludables mejillas rojas. El niño del tambor recuerda viejas canciones navideñas. Al mismo tiempo, el tambor es un símbolo nacional y militar asociado con la marcha.
