Artist Susanne Thea used Google to “visit” every place Hans Christian Andersen went on his 1840-1841 journey, as described in his travelogue “A Poet’s Bazaar.”

Along with Andersen's fairy tales and paper cuttings, Thea consumed works of art and philosophy referenced in “A Poet’s Bazaar” to help artistically visualize his travels for this pictorial series.
