“A Companion to the Collections” is intended to assist viewers in orienting themselves in The National Gallery, and also serves as an introduction to Norwegian art from the previous century. The works of art are followed by texts describing the three main tendencies within Norwegian art and spiritual life from the previous century: Romanticism, Realism and neo-Romanticism. The Museum was founded in 1836, and is counted among Europe’s oldest art museums.
