Hello everyone! Today was another busy day of museum/gallery hopping. I started it off with a good breakfast, as I usually do.
The first museum we went to was the Statens Museum for Kunst which is the national gallery of Denmark. We didn't have all day to spend viewing the art, which was unfortunate, given the size of the gallery. With this in mind, I kept to the second floor from Renaissance to Cubism within Europe. I especially was fond of the Danish painters!
Our next gallery specialized solely on design, and was called Designmuseum Denmark. The building was formerly the royal Fredericks Hospital and Denmark's first hospital in the present meaning of the word. It was opened in 1757. Now, it hosts a collection of design works and porcelain.
I stopped for a light snack before we departed for our final museum of the day.
Our last museum was the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art. Before viewing anything, we stopped for lunch. I'll admit, this is my least favorite meal of the entire trip. That includes airplane food and everything else I've eaten, including strange salty Swedish candy.
The museum was smaller, but the grounds were beautiful and they border Øresund (the sound), which is the straight between the North and Baltic seas.
We finished the day with some dinner, and I'm in my hotel room now. I'm sleepy, but happy with how the day turned out. I hope you all have had a good day and that you have tasty meals!
