From their Website:
"Ordrupgaard is a state-owned art museum under the Danish Ministry of Culture located near Copenhagen. Ordrupgaard's collection features 19th-century French and Danish art, including works by important Romantic, Realist, and Impressionist painters. The private collector Wilhelm Hansen obtained many of the collection's pieces in the early 20th century, and the collection is displayed in its original setting in what was the Hansens' mansion. In addition to this, a new extension designed by the world-renowned architect Zaha Hadid has been added to the museum, providing the museum with a visionary building of international standing."
