About the piece

Painted in 1855 by Lars Hertervig, this oil on panel work depicts a rugged Scandinavian coastline. The composition is dominated by a turbulent sky where light pierces through dark, heavy clouds, casting a luminous glow on the water and highlighting the jagged, reddish rocks in the foreground.
