Christi hoved 1777 - 1844

"Christi Hoved" (Christ's Head) is a small portrait by Danish artist F.C. Camradt, created between 1777 and 1844, showcasing the artist's mastery of detail and realism. The painting, now housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts Christ's face, tilted upwards with eyes closed, reflecting a moment of intense contemplation. Camradt's use of subtle light and shadow accentuates Christ's features, adding depth and emotion to the piece. This intimate depiction of Christ's head, characterized by a somber yet serene expression, provides a glimpse into Camradt's artistic style and his interest in religious themes.
