Frederik Vermehren (May 12, 1823 - 1910) was a Danish painter and professor at the Royal Academy in Copenhagen. He was a dominant figure in Danish art in the second half of the 19. century, and a more conservative realist of the National Romantic school than contemporaries such as Zahrtmann and Krøyer. He was also in charge of acquisitions for the National Gallery (SMK) for a decade.
