About the piece

Painted in 1699 by Jacob Coning, this panoramic view looks across the fields and waters of the fjord toward Christiana, the historic name for Oslo. The composition features a grand, cloud-filled sky that dominates the upper half of the canvas, while the foreground is populated by tiny travelers and tall pines, emphasizing the immense scale of the Norwegian landscape.
