Upgrade your walls with The Parsonage - Nikolai Astrup - Canvas Oil Painting. Every fine art reproduction is painted entirely by hand, so the surface carries the depth and variation of an original oil painting rather than the flatness of a digital canvas print.
Prestegarden
1899-1906
Oil on canvas
101 x 88 cm
Bergen Kunstmuseum, Norway.
The Parsonage (c 1928) presumably shows the replacement for the original building which was demolished in 1907, which Astrup had painted using a less extreme perspective projection in his The Shady Side of the Jolster Parsonage (before 1908). It continues to develop his theme of radical perspective in buildings, to which he had returned from time to time.
Through the winter of 1927-28, Astrup’s pulmonary tuberculosis worsened. After Christmas, he developed pneumonia, and died of that on 21 January 1928, aged just forty-seven. His widow Engel went on to become a very successful textile designer, raised her eight children, and maintained their smallholding. She died thirty-eight years later, in 1966.
In 1986, their home at Astruptunet was opened as a museum, and between February 2016 and January 2017 a major exhibition of Nikolai Astrup’s paintings and prints was held in London, Norway, and Germany. Work is progressing on his catalogue raisonné, and many of his works are on show in Bergen and Oslo.
Collectors often choose this fine art image when searching for fine art oil painting that feels substantial rather than decorative or disposable.
Expect subtle, hand-made variation rather than factory uniformity. Each fine art canvas is painted with oils, allowed to cure properly, and inspected before it is approved for shipment.
Wondering where fine art oil painting looks best? Try a bedroom mantel, a dining room sideboard, or a hallway gallery wall. The fine art subject reads clearly from a distance and rewards close viewing up near.
In short: The Parsonage - Nikolai Astrup - Canvas Oil Painting combines a classic composition, a 100% hand painted oil painting process, and the flexibility of made-to-order canvas sizes — a dependable choice for fine art oil painting and bedroom wall art.
