Ordrupgaard Museum - Klampenborg, Denmark

August 2010

A selection of photographs of our visit to the Ordrupgaard Museum. Zaha Hadid designed the Annex expansion to the museum.

The Ordrupgaard Museum of French Impressionism consists of two main buildings, the historic mansion which houses the permanent collection of French Impressionist paintings and works of Danish painters, and a new building, designed by architect Zaha Hadid, which is used primarily for changing exhibits. Photography of the art is not permitted so what follows are photos of the buildings and grounds.
