This etching by Danish artist Poul Isac Grønvold, titled "Frederik V's indtog i Odense" (Frederik V's Entry into Odense) depicts a historical event: the arrival of King Frederik V of Denmark in the city of Odense. The scene showcases a large group of soldiers marching through the city, with a detailed view of the town and its buildings in the background. The inscription on the artwork provides contextual information, referring to the "Kongens ansonst" (King's arrival) and the date of the event. This work offers a glimpse into 18th-century Danish life and the importance of royal processions in the era.
