Poesi- og dagbog 1840-44 1840 - 1844

This is the cover of Johan Thomas Lundbye's poetry and diary, created between 1840 and 1844. The red leather cover has the title embossed in gold lettering, revealing the contents: "Copies of Poems 1840-43" and "Diary April 1843 - Dec 1844". The worn and faded cover suggests the book's age and the importance it held to the Danish artist, known for his realistic depictions of Danish landscapes and rural life. This artifact provides a glimpse into Lundbye's creative process and personal experiences.
