Sigvart Wilhelm Theodor Werner (13 June 1872 – 2 September 1959) was a Danish amateur photographer who gained fame through his artistic landscape photographs, published in book form.〔(Sigvart Werner. From Den store Danske ). . Retrieved 15 February 2010.〕 Encouraged by the success of his early work ''Dyrehaven og Jægersborg Hegn'' (1919), between 1927 and 1940, he published a series of 15 photographic volumes, each covering one of the country's regions. Among the most popular were ''Bornholm'' and ''Nordsjælland''. He was so motivated by the national romanticism movement that he not only tried to present nature as it was but touched up his photographs whenever he could.〔(Lars Schwander, "Det danske Landskab". From Photography.dk. ) .

He is careful to avoid any shots of disadvantaged areas or untidy streets. If the prints are compared with the original negatives, it will be noticed that they have often been significantly altered. For example, the fisherwoman has been removed from Gammel Strand and the City Hall can be seen rising behind the National Museum.〔(Lars Schwander, Sigvart Werner & København. From Photography.dk ). . Retrieved 15 February 2010.〕 His earlier work is generally considered to be his best. ==See also== *Photography in Denmark 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sigvart Werner」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
