You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.85.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 21:48, 22 February 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Christian August Lorentzen''' (10 August 1749 – 8 May 1828) was a [[Danish painter]].<ref>((cite web|url=https://runeberg.org/dbl/10/0377.html|title=Lorentzen, Christian August 1749-1828|publisher=Dansk biografisk Lexikon|author=Ph. Weilbach|access-date=1 March 2019))</ref><ref>((cite web|url=https://www.kulturarv.dk/kid/VisWeilbach.do?kunstnerId=576&wsektion=biografi|title=C.A. Lorentzen|publisher= Kunstindeks Danmark & Weilbach Kunstnerleksikon|author= Kirsten Nannestad|accessdate=1 March 2019))</ref>

==Early life and education==
Christian August Lorentzen was born in [[Sønderborg]], Denmark.  He was the son of Hans Peter Lorentzen and Maria Christina Hansdatter. His father was a [[watchmaker]]. He arrived in [[Copenhagen]] around 1771 where he frequented the [[Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts|Royal Academy of Fine Arts]] but it is unclear whether he received formal training.<ref name=Gyldendal>Thomas Kappel.((cite web|url=http://www.denstoredanske.dk/Kunst_og_kultur/Billedkunst/Billedkunst,_nordisk_barok_og_rokoko/Christian_August_Lorentzen|title=C.A. Lorentzen|publisher=Den Store Danske, Gyldendal|accessdate=2010-07-21))</ref> After arriving in Copenhagen, he was soon used as a portrait painter. From 1779 to 1782 he went abroad to develop his skills, visiting the [[Netherlands]], [[Antwerp]] and [[Paris]] where he copied old masters. In 1792 he traveled to [[Norway]] to paint prospects.<ref name=Gyldendal/>

==Career==
[[File:Martinus Rørbye - C.A. Lorentzen i sit atelier, før 1828, Nivaagaards Malerisamling.jpg|thumb|250px|''C. A. Lorentzen in his studio'' by [[Martinus Rørbye]], painted before 1828]]
After returning home in 1782, he became a more versatile artist. In a number of painting, such as  ''Slaget på Reden'' (''Battle of Copenhagen''. 1801) at [[Frederiksborg Castle|Danish Museum of National History]] and ''Den rædsomste nat'' (''The Awful Night''.  1807) at [[Statens Museum for Kunst|Danish National Gallery]], he documented key events from the [[English Wars (Scandinavia)|English Wars]] between 1801 and 1814. Later in his career he mainly painted portraits, landscapes and scenes from the comedies of [[Ludvig Holberg]] (1684–1754).<ref name=Gyldendal/>

He was professor at the Royal Academy in Copenhagen from 1803 and until his death in 1828. He followed [[Nicolai Abildgaard]] (1743–1809) as the Academy Director from 1809 to 1810. He exercised great influence on the next generation of painters such as [[Martinus Rørbye]] (1803–1848) among others.<ref name=Gyldendal/><ref>((cite web|url=https://www.kulturarv.dk/kid/VisWeilbach.do?kunstnerId=124&wsektion=biografi|title=Nicolai Abildgaard|publisher=Kunstindeks Danmark & Weilbach Kunstnerleksikon|author=Patrick Kragelund|accessdate=1 March 2019))</ref><ref>((cite web|url= https://www.kulturarv.dk/kid/VisWeilbach.do?kunstnerId=1049&wsektion=biografi|title=Martinus Rørbye|publisher=Kunstindeks Danmark & Weilbach Kunstnerleksikon|author=Jens Peter Munk|accessdate=1 March 2019))</ref>
