EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in Norwegian history, showcasing King Haakon VII on Norwegian land in 1905. Painted by Halfdan Frithjof Strom, this oil on board artwork measures an impressive 175x155 cm and belongs to a private collection. King Haakon VII, formerly known as Prince Carl of Denmark and Iceland until the dissolution of the personal union with Sweden in 1905, played a pivotal role as the first King of Norway after its independence. In this portrait, he is accompanied by his son Olav V of Norway, who would later become king himself. The image exudes regality and historical significance. The arrival of King Haakon on Norwegian soil symbolizes the country's newfound independence and marks a turning point in its history. The composition showcases both father and son standing proudly on deck while being greeted by various dignitaries. The presence of a tugboat hints at the ceremonial nature of their arrival, emphasizing the importance placed upon this event. This painting beautifully captures not only royalty but also transportation during that era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection for all to appreciate. It serves as a reminder of Norway's journey towards sovereignty and pays tribute to those who shaped its destiny.
