Sculpture: Viggo Jarl
In the drive up to Hempel Glass Museum, you see lifesize bronze figures standing on their plinths surrounded by green shrubbery. The sculptures are created by the sculptor Viggo Jarl (1879-1965), who also created monumental works for the Marble Church in Copenhagen. Thanks to the friendship between J.C. Hempel and Viggo Jarl, Hempel Glass Museum owns the most important collection of Jarl’s works, including sculptures placed in the outdoors and a large collection of busts and small-scale works.
