Abstract
The Danish filmmaker Carl Th. Dreyer has already enjoyed international acclaim for many years. However, few people are aware of the strong influence exercised on his iconographic language by Vilhelm Hammershøi, a leading painter in his home country but almost unknown outside Denmark until a very short time ago.
