"Rejsedagbog" (Travel Diary) is a small, hand-written journal by Danish artist Johan Thomas Lundbye. The diary, created in 1845, contains the artist’s musings and observations during his travels. As Lundbye was a prominent landscape painter, the journal is a fascinating insight into his artistic process, with notes on his travels, subjects, and the people he met, along with sketches and impressions that would later be developed into his artwork.
