A Norwegian icon
The people, the fjord and the mountain united
Painted in 1848, The Wedding Procession in Hardanger combines the figurative talent of Adolph Tidemand with the monumental landscape of Hans Gude. The procession in traditional costumes crosses an idealized nature where fjord, wooden church, mountains and glacier compose an image that has become emblematic of Norway. The selection "Adolph Tidemand and Hans Gude" notably compares The Wedding Procession in Hardanger. Its reading favors atmosphere.
The collaboration unites the two essential genres of the painting: human life in the foreground and the grandeur of the landscape around it.
Course & style
