About the piece
Created in 1899 by Norwegian master Frits Thaulow, this oil painting captures the peaceful atmosphere of Picquigny in northern France. Thaulow’s celebrated ability to render the movement and translucency of water is on full display here, as the river’s ripples catch the light and reflect the warm, earth-toned buildings and the soft sky above.
