"L'anniversaire du roi. La Garde royale en gala rouge à Østergade" de Paul Gustav Fischer est une peinture vibrante et dynamique de 1925, représentant une parade en l'honneur de l'anniversaire du roi au cœur de Copenhague. La scène montre la Garde royale en uniforme rouge éclatant et chapeaux à poils, défilant fièrement dans la rue Østergade, entourée d'une foule enthousiaste. Les drapeaux danois flottent au-dessus des bâtiments, ajoutant une touche de patriotisme à l'atmosphère festive. La foule, composée de citoyens de tous âges, observe avec admiration et joie, capturant l'esprit de célébration et d'unité nationale. L'architecture urbaine et les pavés mouillés ajoutent de la profondeur et du réalisme à cette scène historique.

Paul Fischer was born in Copenhagen, Denmark. He was the fourth generation of a Jewish family of Polish descent. Philip August Fischer (1817-1907) and Gustafva Albertina Svedgren (1827-1883) had him as a son. The family was upper-middle class. His father was a painter, but he made his living manufacturing paints and lacquers. In his mid-teens, he enrolled for two years at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. This was the only time he received any formal art education. Fischer began painting at a young age. He was taught to do so by his father. He worked in his father's factory from 1878 to 1888 and often exhibited his works at the Charlottenborg Spring Exhibition from 1884 to 1902. Thanks to a painting he published in Ude og Hjemme, he met young Danish naturalists, and his reputation began to grow. His early paintings depicted how people lived in cities. For this reason, he was called the "Copenhagen Painter" (Kbenhavns maler). From 1891 to 1895, he lived in Paris, where he made his colors richer and clearer. Fischer became known as a painter of urban scenes, not only of Copenhagen, but also of places in Scandinavia, Italy, and Germany. He was at his peak between 1890 and 1910. He learned from his Norwegian and Swedish peers, especially Carl Larsson. During this time, he also painted bright, sunny scenes of people at the beach, some of them nude, and became interested in making posters after seeing the works of Théophile Steinlen and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. At the time Laurits Tuxen was painting, he was Denmark's most important artist. During his lifetime, Fischer did not receive much critical attention, but his works sold well. When Sweden returned Norway to the Norwegians, it was Fischer, not Tuxen, who was commissioned by the Norwegian king to paint the event. It was a major victory for Fischer over Tuxen.
