About the piece

Painted in 1894, Frits Thaulow's 'River in Normandy' showcases the artist's celebrated ability to render the movement and color of water. The vibrant blues and rippling reflections of the stream contrast beautifully with the warm, textured brickwork of the riverside architecture, creating a peaceful and evocative scene characteristic of late 19th-century European landscape painting.
