Dohm painted many portraits in the periods 1900- 1915. It was in this period that Dohm portrayed the former king of Denmark Christian X, and gained immediate success. Later on in the 1920´s Dohm became a household name and highly admired. Dohm´s popularity in that period gave him freedom to experiment with his painting technique and many of his portaits got a very special mix of Naturalistic and Impressionistic views.
