Rued and Constance Langgaard left behind them a large number of portrait photographs, which for the most part are now preserved in the Royal Library.
All the photographs kept here under the entry Rued Langgaard, about 120 in all, were scanned in for this Langgaard website in 1996. Many of the pictures have never been published before.
To them have been added a number of photographs found elsewhere in the Royal Library, or which are privately owned.
The photographs are not kept in albums or in chronological order, but here they have been listed thematically and chronologically. Langgaard's photo albums have, so to speak, been 'reconstructed'.
So here they are - leaf through them!
