The collection represents the private art collection of Carl Jacobsen (1842–1914), the son of the founder of the Carlsberg Breweries.
The Glyptotek is primarily a sculpture museum, as indicated by the name, the focal point of the museum is antique sculptures from the ancient cultures around the Mediterranean, including Egypt, Rome and Greece, as well as more modern sculptures such as a collection of Auguste Rodin's works, considered to be the most important outside.
However, the museum is equally noted for its collection of paintings that includes an extensive collection of French impressionists and Post-impressionists as well as Danish Golden Age paintings.
Not an original composition, but one I wanted to take for quite a while, mainly because of the technical challenges. This panoramic consists of 5 images stitched together, each with an average exposure time of 6 minutes. It took about an hour to shoot the whole set, accounting for the boats passing by, of which there were way more than I expected at 7am. I used a 16 stop and a 4 stop gradual ND filter, 5 vertical shots @ 24mm, settings ISO 100 f/8.0
My mom grew up around this area and was commenting on how the hills make her feel like home. I have always lived in cities that are much flatter but, as I was leaving Phoenix at the end of my spring trip, I ran into a stranger who had coincidentally just moved to Phoenix from Chicago and was making random conversation at a vegan restaurant. He had always lived in Chicago and said, "The first time I saw a mountain, I cried."
Anyway, landscapes are interesting. The concept of home is also interesting. Identity, architecture, clouds-all fascinating things. Have. nice day!
