新卡尔斯堡雕塑艺术博物馆(Ny Carlsberg Glyptoteket)
The Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek was founded by the brewer Carl Jacobsen (1842-1914) who created one of the langest private art collections of his time. It was named after his brewery, Ny Carlsberg, with the addition of "Glyptotek", meaning collection of sculpture.
To secure the future of the cllection, Carl Jacobsen and his wife Ottilia donated it to the public in two deeds of gift from 1888 and 1899. The Museum's buildings were created to house these works of art.
...
Today, the museum houses the largest collection of ancient art in Northen Euro, primarily sculpture, from Egypt, the Near East, Greece and Italy. But during the more than one hundred years of its existence, the museum has also expanded the collection of French and Danish are from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The Impressionists Paul Gauguin and Auguste Rodin are particularly well represented.
