Raised at the Academy of the Fine Arts in Copenhagen, Harald Sohlberg also studied in Weimar, then in Paris in 1895 and 1896. In reaction to the naturalism, Sohlberg composed landscapes trying to express the various movements of the heart. Its technique of the glacis, the richness of its colours and its concern of the detail make Sohlberg one of the great figures of Scandinavian painting, in the line of Edvard Munch.
