It stands out with its collection of over 10,000 ancient sculptures from the Greek-Roman, Egyptian, and Mesopotamian eras, as well as works by renowned artists like Monet, Renoir, Degas, and Van Gogh. The architecture is stunning, especially the serene and tranquil Winter Garden, making it perfect for art and history enthusiasts. Conveniently located in the city center, it is a must-visit destination when in Copenhagen.

Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, a name that immediately brings to mind the world-famous beer brand, but this is definitely an art museum worth visiting 🖼️ The entire museum blends historical and modern architectural design. As soon as you step in, you're greeted by a lush indoor garden, with a massive glass roof giving the impression of stepping into an open Roman forum. The architecture draws inspiration from Egyptian buildings and small village elements, aiming to create a perfect interaction between art and ambiance. ☕️ Next to the garden is a café called 'pique-nique,' perfect for having breakfast before exploring the museum. Additionally, the museum features Morandi tones, which is why it's also known as the most beautifully colored museum in Scandinavia. Even though I don't know much about art, it's definitely worth visiting for appreciation and photography 🤍✨

Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek Address: Dantes Plads 7, 1556 København, Denmark The Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek is truly a stunning museum in Copenhagen, featuring a large green garden that resembles a botanical garden, where you can see the personal collection of Carl Jacobsen. In addition to its impressive collection of sculptures, the museum also showcases various paintings, including many from the French Impressionist and Post-Impressionist movements, as well as works from Denmark's Golden Age.

In 1888, Carl Jacobsen, the founder of the New Carlsberg beer brand, donated his entire collection to the Danish government on the condition that a museum be built to exhibit these items. Thus, the New Carlsberg Glyptotek rose from the ground in the heart of Copenhagen. To this day, the New Carlsberg Glyptotek is still renowned for its sculpture exhibits, which include many statues from the ancient Roman era, as well as artworks from the Etruria region surrounding Rome during the ancient Greek era. The museum's collection includes over ten thousand art pieces and archaeological finds, particularly famous for ancient Greek and Roman sculptures, ancient Egyptian mummies; masterpieces by French Impressionist masters such as Gauguin, Manet, Degas, Monet, Cézanne, Renoir, and Van Gogh. Here, sculptures of various styles from different periods are like time machines.

I accidentally saw a post from instagram called “Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek” and i was thinking that it was just another museum to visit but it turned out to be an extraordinary place that you can enjoy the shapes and curves of those sculptures. I am highly recommend. It is just nearby Tivoli park. The ticket price is 125 dkk (650 baht). #museum #art #sculptures #copenhagen #denmark

I enjoyed visiting The Glyptotek or simply known as Glyptoteket which is located in Copenhagen, Denmark. I really love the entrance of the museum which is a garden with a lot of palm trees. Next to the garden is a restaurant where you can enjoy a good coffee and the food was absolutely delicious. 😋 Inside the museum was a huge collection of sculptures. I've read that there are paintings there as well, but I haven't looked into it as I spent all of my time admiring the sculptures. There was also a special exhibition about the City of Amarna - City of the Sun God when I visited. You should definitely put this in your list of places to visit when you are in Copenhagen. 😉 #denmark #museums #copenhagen #sculptures

At the Xin Jiashi Bo Art Museum, the interaction between art and space has its unique charm, largely due to the color matching and display in the museum. In the winter garden at the intersection of the two wings, the design of the circular arched dome is due to Carl Jacobsen's obsession with 19th century industrial technology. Steel, greenery, and marble intertwine to create a Nordic tropical rainforest. Designer Kupka once said, "As Danes, we need to know more about flowers and plants. In the winter I imagine, this greenery will make people want to explore. Because of these palm trees, they will also pause in front of the sculptures." Different from the concept of a regular art museum that centers around exhibits and arranges everything else around them, the designer has created numerous color collisions in the museum. Not only are the walls eye-catching, but the floors are also equally impressive, telling their own stories. Among them, the Scottish-style mosaic was designed for Karl Jacobson's British wife, Ottilia, and there are also wheat pattern mosaics, all of which are Karl's tribute to the Jacobson family industry.

Although the Carlsberg Museum has a small collection of small collections, its value is quite high, and Manets The Man Who Drinks Absinthe is here. Its hard to realize that the painting is so large. The size was basically only for the upper class, but Manet painted a destitute drunkard, which has no meaning in the eyes of the school. The rules of the paintings that the school sent to pay attention to, the Mannai was not satisfied, took the painting to participate in the salon selection, of course, the salon refused to dismiss. Manai is rebellious than I am, but instead of compromising, it has intensified. A few years later, the great work The Lunch on the Grass and Olympia were born, and Manet became one of the leaders of a group of rebellious artists. Later, this group of rebellious artists launched the first movement in the history of art - the formation of Impressionism. Speaking of "Olympia", many people say that Manet borrowed Goya's Maha and Musk's Venus. Just a few days ago, I saw a Swedish painter's "Danae and Golden Rain" at the Swedish National Museum. I felt that it was exactly the same as "Olympia". I don't know if Manet has used it. Finally, although I really like this museum, I have to say that the French painting exhibition area is not well-lit, especially this one who has great significance in art history, "The Man Who Drinks Absinthe", at the top right of the picture. Originally it was a large area of dark color, but it lacked a light source, and the visual effect was very bad. The photo was even more unbalanced. In another room, Degas was copied to one of more than 20 identical bronze replicas, but was separately displayed and pulled the cordon.
