About the piece

Painted in 1829 by Johan Christian Dahl, this work is a quintessential example of Norwegian Romanticism. The composition focuses on the rugged resilience of nature, represented by ancient, twisted oaks and monolithic stones, set against the soft, melancholic light of a cold winter evening near Vordingborg.
