The hand behind it
Christian Krohg
Christian Krohg was a Norwegian realist who painted everyday life, often the hard side of it: seamen, working women, the poor and the marginal. His pictures are direct and unsentimental, with a strong feeling for people. Born near Christiania (Oslo), he first qualified in law, then trained as a painter in Karlsruhe under Hans Gude and in Berlin. He spent time at the Skagen artists’ colony in Denmark in the 1880s, painting fishermen and sailors. He was also a novelist and journalist, taught in Paris, and from 1909 led the new Norwegian Academy of Fine Arts. His works hang in the National Museum in Oslo and in the Skagens Museum. Two of his best known paintings are on our list: Albertine at the Police Doctor’s Waiting Room, a large scene linked to his own novel Albertine, and Leif Erikson Discovers America (1893), a sweeping view of the Viking ship’s crew at the moment of sighting land.

Questions
How is the finish priced?
The price you see is the painting at the size you chose, in the finish you chose, and it updates as you change either. Rolled arrives in a protective tube, ready for local framing. Stretched arrives on wooden bars, ready to hang. Framed arrives in its frame, ready to hang. Stretched and framed go up to 60 × 90 cm (24 × 36 in); larger paintings travel rolled.
How long does it take?
Painting begins after you order and takes 3 to 4 weeks, including drying and the photo you approve. Delivery then takes 4 to 10 working days to most countries. More on delivery times.
Will it look exactly like the original?
It is painted by a person, so no. Brushwork varies between copies, which is the difference between a painting and a poster.
What if I do not like it?
Ninety days from delivery, full refund.
Can I get At the Water’s Edge in a different size or shape?
Yes. At the Water’s Edge is painted to the size you want, in the original’s proportions, or adapted to another shape on request. Stretched and framed go up to 60 x 90 cm (24 x 36 in).
