    The double portrait of the Baudissin-von Witlebens captures, in miniature, something of the intimate idyll of the bourgeoisie during Denmark’s golden age. There is a touch of naivety to the detailed accessories and the warm colours. Frederik Christian Camradt’s work is recognisable also for his trademark quirk: he always painted models’ eyes light blue.
