Old Pine Trees (Norwegian:Gamle furutrær) is a painting by Lars Hertervig from 1865.
Lars Hertervig painted Old Pine Trees at the age of 35 in Stavanger. He then worked in a carpentry and paint shop in the town, after studying painting for a few years at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf under Hans Gude. He had also visited England and the Mediterranean countries.
Description
The painting shows two old pines in a primeval forest early on a sunny day. Between the dark earth and the bright sky. In the valleys is a blue-gray morning fog, and in the background the snow-capped mountains.
Provenance
Petra Aanensen (1858-?), Single daughter of master painter Peder Aanensen (1821-?), In 1940, his artistic estate left the family for the Stavanger Kunstforening. This included the painting, which has been in family ownership since its creation in 1865. Then the painting came with the rest of the art in 1992, when the permanent collection became part of the Rogaland Art Museum in Stavanger, today called the Stavanger kunstmuseum.
