The Bay of Naples with Vesuvius in the Background. Artist: Christen Købke (Danish, Copenhagen 1810-1848 Copenhagen). Dimensions: sheet: 10 13/16 x 15 9/16 in. (27.5 x 39.5 cm). Date: 1825-48. Købke is regarded as the most important painter of Denmark's golden age, although his career was cut short by his early death at the age of thirty-eight. His most ambitious compositions were inspired by the German artist Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840) and thus include grandly Romantic land- and seascapes. The Museum's drawing is closely related to a painting (Toledo Museum of Art) that Købke complete
