Frederik VII's ligfærd d. 2. december 1863 is a 1895 oil by Carl Locher, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
The painting depicts a dark, moody scene of a funeral procession at night. The atmosphere is somber, with figures dressed in black and a horse-drawn carriage carrying a coffin. The scene is set against a backdrop of buildings, with a large crowd gathered to pay their respects. The use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and drama, with the light sources casting long shadows across the scene. The brushstrokes are bold and expressive, adding to the overall sense of emotion and solemnity. This painting is reminiscent of the work of artist Carl Locher.
Carl Locher (21 November 1851 – 20 December 1915) was a Danish realist painter who from an early age became a member of the Skagen group of painters.
