Kolås Wood, Vejrhøj, Johan Thomas Lundbye (1846)
Lundbye was a votary of isolation as something conducive to the study’s union of the love of nature and the artistic spirit.
Johan Thomas Lundbye was a Danish painter and graphic artist, known for his animal and landscape paintings. He was inspired by Niels Laurits Høyen's call to develop nationalistic art through depictions of Denmark's characteristic landscapes; the historical buildings and monuments, and the country's simple, rural people. He became one of his generation's national romantic painters.
