Winter at the Sognefjord
View through Europeana Collections
Johan Christian Dahl relocated permanently to Dresden after his journey to Italy 1820–21. In the following years he painted several more or less fanciful depictions of Norwegian landscapes, a genre that he had also been successful with during his Copenhagen years. The shift in Dahl’s understanding of the Norwegian landscape came in 1826, when he made his first field trip around Norway, travelling from Christiania through Telemark and over the Hardanger Plateau to the fjords of Western Norway. For the first time as a mature artist, he was able to see the southern Norwegian landscape in all its diversity.
