Imens i livet hos Nicolai Abildgaard
Hele livet1794–1798
Decorating the Levetzau Palace at Amalienborg
After the fire Abildgaard obtained decorative commissions and the chance to work as an architect: he decorated the Levetzau Palace (now Christian VIII’s Palace) at Amalienborg, home of King Christian VII’s half-brother Frederik, with his protégé Bertel Thorvaldsen leading the sculptural work. He drew up plans for rebuilding Christiansborg but did not get the commission.
1801
Director of the Academy again, for life
Abildgaard was again chosen as director of the Academy and remained so until his death; by other accounts this term began in 1802.
1803
Married: Juliane Marie Abildgaard
1804
The throne room: a commission and a quarrel
Abildgaard received a commission for a series of paintings for the throne room of the new palace, but disagreements with the crown prince halted the project. He went on designing furniture and room decorations for the court.
