This grandiose building was erected in 1889-96 after plans drawn by Wilhelm Dahlerup and G.E.W. Møller, in Italian Renaissance style. In autumn 1998, an extension was opened that gave the State's Art Museum the facelift it needed. The architects were Anna Maria Indrio and Mads Møller. This deeply original new building was constructed in the park behind the original building and is connected to it by a glass-covered walkway, 'the street of sculptures'. The 'street' stretches along the full length of the museum, and within it concerts and dance performances are held. The museum contains collections of art dating from the twelfth century. In the older European and Danish collections feast your eyes on paintings by Titian, Tintoretto, Breugel, Rubens, Frans Hals and Rembrandt can be . The modern collection comprises work by Picasso, Braque, Leger, Modigliani and Emil Nolde. Also Danish painters are richly represented, and you can enjoy the styles of Oluf Høst, Edward Weihe, Olaf Rude and Harald Giersing.Statens Museum for Kunst also contains a special museum for children and the Royal Danish Copperplate Collection.
