Hjalmar Eilif Emanuel Peterssen (1852-1928) was a Norwegian
Impressionist painter born in Oslo. He graduated from the Ducal school. He then travelled to France, where he developed his landscape painting technique in Normandy. However, he achieved great success with his landscapes back in Norway. He even designed a new coat of arms for Norway after the dissolution of the union with Sweden. There, he painted vast and rugged mountains
in Innsbruck. After the death of his first wife, he went with other artists to Denmark, where he transferred his gloomy mood to his paintings (incidentally, these images later influenced the works of another famous Scandinavian artist
Edward Munch). Again in Venice, with the painter Frits Thaulow, he painted several
Impressionist paintings. Peterssen did not devote himself only to landscapes, he was also an excellent portraitist. In his paintings, he immortalized the famous Norwegian personalities like. Danish Archbishop
