More about this artwork

"What’s Going On In Copenhagen" by Paul Fischer is a vibrant and detailed representation of everyday life in Copenhagen at the close of the 19th century. Painted in 1899, this panoramic cityscape captures a bustling street scene filled with a diverse array of citizens mingling and going about their daily routines.The foreground of the painting is alive with movement and interaction. A gentleman on the left engages with some boys near a policeman, symbolizing the city’s peace and orderliness. To the right, a woman pushes a baby carriage, accompanied by a child, indicating the presence of family life amid the urban hustle. Street vendors, cyclists, and passersby in chic turn-of-the-century attire lend authenticity to the city’s vibrant atmosphere.In the background, horse-drawn carriages and trams provide a sense of the era's transportation, as they navigate through the populous streets lined with stately European architecture.Fischer’s technique in representing light and shadow, as well as his attention to the details of facial expressions and clothing, enriches the painting with a sense of realism and immediacy.
