About the piece
Painted in 1899 by Norwegian artist Kristen Holbø, 'Storm in the Mountain' is a masterful example of atmospheric landscape painting. The work captures the volatile beauty of the high mountains, where a heavy, light-streaked sky looms over dark, rocky terrain and a resilient flock of sheep. Holbø's vigorous brushwork and expert use of light convey both the movement of the storm and a profound sense of natural drama.
