“Henning Larsen’s projects have captured the imagination of people across the globe and have become instantly recognizable as symbols of the nations they represent. In this sense, they are icons that have become eternal,” said Christian Narkiewicz-Laine, President and CEO of The Chicago Athenaeum.

Larsen will be formally recognized at a gala to be held at the foot of the Acropolis in Athens, Greece on September 13, 2019.
