Around the beginning of the 19th century, the Golden Age of Danish Painting emerged to form a distinct national style for the first time since the Middle Ages; the period lasted until the middle of the century. It has a style drawing on [[Dutch Golden Age painting]], especially its [[landscape painting]],<ref>Dutch paintings, and landscapes, dominated in the 18th century Danish collections that we have records of. North, 308-9 [https://books.google.com/books?id=XGui9XJ3ObIC&dq=Danish+Golden+Age+painting&pg=PA309]</ref> and depicting northern light that is soft but allows strong contrasts of colour. The treatment of scenes is typically an idealized version of reality, but unpretentiously so, appearing more [[realism (visual arts)|realist]] than is actually the case. Interior scenes, often small portrait groups, are also common, with a similar treatment of humble domestic objects and furniture, often of the artist's circle of friends. Little Danish art was seen outside the country (indeed it mostly remains there to this day) although the Danish-trained leader of German Romantic painting [[Caspar David Friedrich]] was important in spreading its influence in Germany.

A crucial figure was [[Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg]], who had studied in Paris with [[Jacques-Louis David]] and was further influenced towards [[Neo-Classicism]] by the sculptor [[Bertel Thorvaldsen]]. Eckersberg taught at the [[Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts|Academy]] from 1818 to 1853, becoming director from 1827 to 1828, and was an important influence on the following generation, in which landscape painting came to the fore.<ref>[http://www.nga.gov/exhibitions/eckersberginfo.shtm Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg.
