Review:
The Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek is a world-renowned art museum focused on sculptures and located in downtown Copenhagen. The core of the museum is the personal collection of Carl Jacobsen of the Carlsberg Breweries. The Glyptotek is home to more than 10,000 artworks separated into two distinct collections: the Department of Antiquities, with superb collections of Greek, Egyptian, Etruscan and Roman art that provide a trip through 3500 years of art through history; and the Modern Department, with Danish paintings and sculptures created in the 19th and 20th centuries, as well as French art belonging to the same period.
Some of the highlights are extraordinary paintings from Denmark's rich Golden Age, some exceptional French Impressionists’ paintings and sculptures, over 40 of Gauguin’s works, a superb series of Degas' bronzes and an amazing collection of 35 sculptures by Rodin—the largest outside of France.
