About the piece

Gerhard Munthe’s 1885 work 'High Mountains' showcases the artist's celebrated transition into a decorative, fairytale style rooted in Norwegian folklore. The painting transforms a rugged mountain vista into a dreamlike scene, where the ancient stones themselves appear to possess a quiet, organic life of their own.
