Detailed Description

Norwegian art is often described as simple, naturalistic and representational. Its roots date back to the Viking Age, when Norsemen carved ornate wooden objects and created intricate metalwork. In the Middle Ages, Norwegians continued to produce beautiful works in wood and metal, as well as tapestries and illuminated manuscripts. The Renaissance saw the development of a distinctive Norwegian painting style, characterized by its use of light and shadow to create a sense of depth. Famous Norwegian artists include Edvard Munch, whose paintings The Scream and The Madonna are among the most iconic images of the modern era, and Odd Nerdrum, a contemporary artist known for his highly stylized paintings. Other notable Norwegian painters include Harriet Backer, Lars Hertervig and Adolph Tidemand. Norwegian art is often inspired by the country’s stunning landscapes, with its mountains, fjords and forests providing a constant source of inspiration for artists. Norwegian painters have long been fascinated by the play of light and shadow in the natural world, and this is evident in the works of many of the country’s most famous artists.
