Perlerne fra Langtbortistan
No full textDet nordiske rav spillede en stor rolle i bronzealderens omfattende handelsnetværk fra Østersøen og til Middelhavsområdet. Nu har en håndfuld ravperler fra en grav i Syrien også vist sig at stamme så langt væk fra som Østersøområdet, 3.000 km fra fundstedet. Men hvorfor var rav så populært

Water absorption in medieval lime plaster:Influence of binder ratio, preparation protocol, and limewashing
Get PDFDanish medieval wall paintings from the Gothic period are painted on thick limewash layers applied to very lime-rich pure air-lime plasters. This study examines wall painting plasters, replicated for the purpose of conservation trials, particularly focusing on their resemblance to medieval plasters in terms of water absorption properties. Plaster specimens with two different binder-to-aggregate ratios were examined, with and without the application of limewash. Moreover, the impact of the mortar mixing technique was tested, juxtaposing dry hot-mixed and wet hot-mixed mortars. Their resemblance to original wall painting plasters in terms of microstructure, porosity, and water absorption properties was assessed by comparing laboratory measurements to those obtained in situ on medieval plasters. The study shows that the binder content is the most important factor in replicating the general moisture-physical properties of medieval plaster. The preparation protocol has a clear impact on the crystal structure of the lime matrix, but no significant impact on the water absorption properties. Limewashing increases the initial water absorption rate, whereas the subsequent water absorption is affected by the structure of the underlying lime plaster matrix
Photographic Self-fashioning: The role of photography in community-formation by the Skagen Painters
No full textThis article looks at a selection of photos from the artists’ colony in Skagen Denmark and argues, that the photographic representations from the colony throughout the 20th century have played a minor role in the Danish art historiography on the subject. The article examines how the group identity and the community are depicted in a number of photographs from the 1870s and 1880s, and analyses how these photographs can be viewed as performative acts, which helped bolster the group identity and community-formation. The analysis thus emphasises the importance of the photographic act itself, arguing that the photographs not only function as witnesses to events that have taken place, but that they also convince the viewer of community formation. It is argued that the photographs of communal activities do not only represent a 'pastness', but that they also indicate a present and point to community formation. The empirical material consists of the artists’ accounts of being an artist in an artists’ colony such as anecdotes, letters, eyewitness accounts published in contemporary media and some of the photographs of the artists’ communal activities in the collection of Art Museums of Skagen
Management & Development. Notable Libraries:Royal Danish Library
No full textThe Royal Danish Library (RDL), a merger of several historic libraries, serves as Denmark’s national and university library. It preserves and disseminates cultural heritage information and supports research and education. Acquired through legal deposits, donations, and acquisitions, the RDL’s holdings include millions of physical items, including books, manuscripts, and maps. The library also boasts a petabyte-scale digital repository, preserving web domains, e-books, newspapers, music, and radio and television recordings. Through preservation efforts and user-friendly interfaces, the RDL ensures global access to Denmark’s cultural legacy. Collaborations and partnerships enrich resources and expand accessibility. Future trends focus on the development of RDL as a unified library entity in optimizing the library infrastructure, leveraging emerging technologies, and managing the evolving landscape of digital publications.The Royal Danish Library (RDL), a merger of several historic libraries, serves as Denmark’s national and university library.
