The Panther Hunter

View through National Gallery of Denmark
Jerichau is equally interested in masculine ideas as evinced by THE PANTHER HUNTER and in cute animals and children at play. His treatment of figures and motifs has a distinctly sensuous quality; this in contrast to the cool, idealising sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen. Jerichau’s romantic abundance of emotion was not universally appreciated on the Danish art scene, nor was his fervent interest in foreign movements, and he actively distanced himself from the wave of Danish patriotism that followed in the wake of the Schleswig wars in 1849-51 and 1864. Even though he and his wife, Elisabeth Jerichau Baumann, were branded as unpatriotic “Europeans”, he was nevertheless made professor at and director of the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts.
