Johan Frederik Holm (b. 1803, d. 1877)
Architecture. Inscribed on the reverse J. F. Holm 1838. Plaster mosaic. 32×25.5 cm.
Holm was in 1846–50 responsible for executing Jørgen Sonne's cement plaster frieze for Thorvaldens Museum. The present piece of architecture can therefore be regarded as a dry run for the monumental frieze thus giving a rare idea of the original colours.
