$a The text is printed in Danish and French in parallel columns. The Thorvaldsens Museum had been opened in Copenhagen in 1848. It contained works donated to the Danish state by Thorvaldsen in 1837 - consisting not only of his own works but also of some ancient sculpture and modern paintings and works of art. The frontispiece is an engraving of Eckersberg's portrait of 'A. Thorvaldsen'. The numbered plates are outline lithographs, captioned in Danish and French. Plates 1-117 show Thorvaldsen's sculptures (of Christian and pagan subjects); 118, his last drawing (a figure of Sculpture seated on the shoulder of Jupiter); 119, 120, 'Plan af Thorvaldsens Museum. Förste (Anden) Etage'. Though most of his works are now conserved in Denmark, Thorvaldsen received commissions from all over Europe. His first large commission came from a British patron, Thomas Hope. On Canova's death in 1822 he had been recognised as the leading Neoclassical sculptor. |
