More about this artwork

“From Porsgrunn” by Thorvald Erichsen (1907) encapsulates the serene essence of this Norwegian town in a unique post-impressionist style. Rough, lively brushstrokes and a vivid palette bring the landscape to life, reflecting the quiet yet vibrant rhythm of Porsgrunn. In this painting, the foreground features part of a boat and figures seemingly involved in quiet conversation, their forms blurring into the shades of blue, scarlet, and earth that define the work.Erichsen's portrayal of the water is particularly notable, with its reflective surface mirroring the sprawl of the town and the sky, creating a dynamic interplay between light and color. A prominent feature in the background is the blue spire of a church, punctuating the skyline and providing a focal point that draws the eye across the water, helping to unify the composition. Trees and buildings line the horizon, their shapes simplified yet harmonious with the scene's overall tranquil atmosphere.

Thorvald Erichsen was a Norwegian Post-Impressionist painter; primarily known for landscapes and still lifes.

Thorvald Erichsen was born in Trondheim, Norway. He was the son of Ernst Erichsen (1820-1869) and Trine Jensine Rian (1829-1884). Erichsen's father was a confectioner and died when Erichsen was very young.

Although at first he wanted to be a pianist, in 1886 he began studying law, then dropped out and attended a painting school run by Knud Bergslien, where he completed a course in arts and crafts. He later moved to Copenhagen, where he became a student of Christian Zahrtmann, who had a greater influence on his artistic development.
