About the piece

Created in 1905, Ludvig Karsten’s 'Spring Evening at Ula' reflects the powerful influence of Expressionism on Norwegian art. The composition pairs a large, quiet foreground with a concentrated burst of color in the background architecture, using energetic brushwork to evoke the cool, lingering light of a northern spring evening.
