Charlotte Bartholin is a 1836 oil by Jørgen Roed, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
The painting depicts a woman with dark hair, dressed in a black dress and a shawl. The background is dark, which makes the woman stand out. The painting is done in oil paint. The woman's face is the main focus of the painting, and her expression is serious. The artist has used chiaroscuro to create a sense of depth and contrast in the painting. The woman's dress and shawl are also detailed, giving a sense of texture and fabric. This painting is a great example of the work of artist Jørgen Roed.
Jørgen Roed (13 January 1808 – 8 August 1888), Danish portrait and genre painter associated with the Golden Age of Danish Painting, was born in Ringsted to Peder Jørgensen Roed and wife, Ellen Hansdatter.
