"Kongegravene i Ringsted Kirke". Planche XVI, an etching by Danish artist Heinrich Hansen (1821-1890), showcases the royal tombs of Ringsted Church. This 1858 print, now housed at the Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts two stone tombs and a Latin inscription, possibly commemorating the buried individuals. The inscription highlights the importance of the tombs and their intricate details. This artwork, a fine example of 19th-century Danish printmaking, offers a glimpse into the history and craftsmanship of royal burials in Denmark.
