  • Young artists tired of the conservative art scene around the turn of the 20th century, so they traveled abroad - most of them to France and particularly Paris - where they could experience personal freedom and a modern, cosmopolitan art scene.

  • From realism to impressionism
    The exhibit begins with paintings in the realist style that dominated the time, then follows the work of those artists who went abroad and saw their native countries with new eyes when they returned home. This return launched a new approach to painting, and the Nordic artists synthesized contemporary ideas, practices and styles they encountered abroad to depict the motifs of their home region. In the years that followed, the Nationalmuseum collected these exemplary works of this history.
