Church frescos in Denmark

Church frescos or church wall paintings (Danish: ''kalkmalerier'') are to be found in some 600 churches across Denmark, no doubt representing the highest concentration of surviving church murals anywhere in the world.〔(Kalkmalerier i de danske landsbykirker from VisitDenmark ). In Danish. Retrieved 15 August 2009.〕 Most of them date back to the Middle Ages and were uncovered by Jacob Kornerup (1825-1913) who carried out restoration work in 80 churches across the country towards the end of the 19th century. They lay hidden for centuries as after the reformation, they were covered with limewash (Danish: ''kalk'') only to be revealed and restored during the course of the 19th and 20th centuries. In most of Europe medieval frescos, extremely common in the Middle Ages, were more likely to be removed completely during the Reformation or in subsequent rebuildings, or merely as they aged. The oldest frescos, dating back to the 12th century, were painted in the Romanesque style by artists from elsewhere in Europe but those from the 14th century and thereafter are in the Gothic style which was used by native Danish painters. It is these that are considered to be the most important for Danish art and culture.〔(Wall Paintings in Danish Churches from Panoramas.dk ). Retrieved 12 August 2009.〕 A distinction is to be made between these church wall paintings or ''kalkmalerier'' and the generic term "fresco" (Danish: ''fresko'') which refers to all types of painting on plastered walls or ceilings.
==Historical background==

The murals in Danish churches can be divided very roughly into two main periods: Romanesque, beginning in the 12th century, and Gothic, from the middle of the 13th century. As in most of Europe the transition in painting styles was less abrupt than in architecture. Painting styles are closely related to those of the neighbouring areas of North Germany and South Sweden, especially the province of Scania, which was Danish territory in the Middle Ages.
