About the piece
Painted in 1820 by Carl Peter Lehmann, this work captures the awe-inspiring presence of the Kallali mountain in Lysefjorden. Exemplifying the Romantic tradition of the sublime, the composition emphasizes the massive scale of the natural world through deep earthy tones, dramatic lighting, and a solitary figure in the foreground that provides a sense of vast proportion.
