The Chronological Collection of the Kings of Denmark #266395

After having thus in a few words explained the intention and plan of the collection, we shall only add, that it is not our pur pose in this book to give a full account of every object, contained in the museum, but only to assist in retaining the impressions, which an attentive and careful survey of the collection has left in the mind after a single visit. Just as during a hasty visit to a large and varied museum it is best before. All to fix the attention upon that which impresses the character of the whole on the mind, so it is our one sole aim, to recall to the memory of the reader his transit from room to room and to freshen the principal features of the outline of a great historical picture, on which we hope the visitor has dwelt with pleasure for a short time.
