Frederik Sødring (1809–1862) was a Danish landscape painter and founder of an endowment. He studied under Jens Peter Møller, was influenced by Johan Christian Dahl, and travelled to Norway and Germany to further his craft. By the 1830s, he was exhibiting landscapes from the Rhine, Southern Germany, and Tyrol.
This portrait of Sødring was painted by Christen Købke in 1832. It is now part of the Hirschsprung Collection in Copenhagen.Painting: Christen Købke
