Erik Theodor Werenskiold

  February 11, 1855
  November 23, 1938
   •   Illustration   •   Wikipedia: Erik Theodor Werenskiold

For the first time the eyes of little Erik Theodor Werenskiold opened to the world on February 11, 1855 in Eidskog, Norway. The Norwegian light and landscapes shaped his soul and his artistic work. His vivid illustrations for Asbjørnsen and Moe's Norske Folkeeventyr collection and his unforgettable drawings for the Norwegian edition of Snorri Sturlason's Heimskringla are just a small sample of Werenskiold's work. Like nature itself, whose eternal beauty we capture in our art prints, Werenskiold's genius in painting and illustration was inexhaustible. The son of a fortress commander in Kongsvinger, Werenskiold grew up in a strict, disciplined environment. His education began at the Kongsvinger National School and continued at the renowned Latin School of Harald Aars and Peter Voss in Christiania. Under the critical eye of the painter Adolph Tidemand Werenskiold finally took up the brush. He acquired his first artistic skills at the drawing school in Christiania under the guidance of the Norwegian sculptor Julius Middelthun and continued his studies in the studio of the artist Axel Hjalmar Ender. Like our precise and high quality art prints, his life journey reflects a passion for art marked by discipline, dedication and constant striving for improvement.

Werenskiold found his inspiration in Munich, the metropolis of art at the time, where he continued his education. There he discovered the superiority of French open-air painting, especially the works of Charles Francois Daubigny, over German studio painting. A serious illness paralyzed his right arm and pulled him from the vibrant art scene of Munich. After an intense struggle and stays in Switzerland, Upper Bavaria and Tyrol, he regained his health and artistic strength. He moved to Paris and immersed himself again in the colorful world of art. Werenskiold eventually returned to Norway and found inspiration in the summers in Telemark, surrounded by natural beauty. Werenskiold left behind a rich collection of paintings depicting the simple life of peasants amidst the idyllic Norwegian landscape. His love for illustration, awakened in Munich, blossomed in his homeland. In collaboration with Theodor Kittelsen, he illustrated Norwegian folk tales and adventure stories for children that strengthened Norway's national consciousness and inspired a deep affection in people's hearts. Werenskiold was awarded the Norwegian National Artist's Salary and the Grand Cross of the Royal Norwegian Order of St. Olav for his outstanding achievements. Erik Theodor Werenskiold died on November 23, 1938, leaving behind an incomparable artistic legacy that is still admired today. Our high quality art prints of Werenskiold's masterpieces reflect the deep respect and dedication with which we wish to preserve and share this heritage. The richness and depth of his artwork provides an inexhaustible source of inspiration and allows us to create each art print with the same passion and dedication that Werenskiold showed in each of his paintings.
