Eckersberg's influence is readily seen in Købke's first mature work " Parti af Århus Domkirke" painted in 1829. Eckersberg stressed observance of nature, and Købke's talent grew under Eckersberg's disciplined training. He studied first in the drawing class of Christian August Lorentzen (1749–1828) and finally 4 years under Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg (1783–1853) after Lorentzen's death in 1828.
In 1822 at 12 years of age he started his studies at Royal Danish Academy of Art ( Det Kongelige Danske Kunstakademi). He made many drawings during his convalescence and decided that he would become an artist. At the age of 11 he suffered from a bout of rheumatic fever. In 1815 the family moved to Kastellet, a military fortification area in Copenhagen, where his father was head baker. He was one of 11 children born to Peter Berend Købke (1771-1843) and Cecilie Margrethe Petersen (1778-1867). Portrait of Frederik Hansen Sødring (1832)Ĭhristen Schiellerup Købke ( – 7 February 1848) was a Danish painter, and one of the best known artists from the Golden Age of Danish Painting.
