EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Frisky Song" a remarkable artwork created by Gerhard Munthe in approximately 1892. Housed in the esteemed Collection of Nasjonalmuseet for Kunst, Arkitektur og Design in Oslo, this piece beautifully combines elements of allegory and literature within a whimsical world inhabited by gnomes and trolls. Munthe's artistry is evident through his masterful use of gold on cardboard, gouache, and watercolour techniques. The painting exudes an enchanting aura as it depicts elves and mythical creatures from Germanic and Norse mythology. It transports viewers into a fairy tale-like realm where folklore comes alive. "The Frisky Song" not only pays homage to traditional legends but also embodies the essence of Art Nouveau style prevalent during that era. Munthe's attention to detail is impeccable, capturing every intricate feature with finesse. Asmund Fragdegjevar, one of the central characters depicted in this masterpiece, adds depth to the narrative unfolding before our eyes. This print serves as a testament to Munthe's artistic brilliance and his ability to bring mythological sagas to life through visual storytelling. Whether displayed in homes or galleries worldwide, this extraordinary artwork continues to captivate audiences with its timeless charm. Its presence reminds us of the enduring power that folklore holds over our imaginations while celebrating Munthe's contribution to fine art imagery.
