About the piece
Painted in 1830 by Mathias Stoltenberg, this work captures a historic meeting in the old Storting hall at Christiania Cathedral School. The painting is a masterful study of light and perspective, drawing the viewer into the high-ceilinged chamber filled with formal figures of early Norwegian governance.
