This book examines the entire output of this prolific folk artist, architect, and interior designer from Valdres, Norway. It depicts his work both from his years in Norway and after his emigration to America. Emphasis has been given to placing his material within a known ethnological and art-historical context, thereby documenting specific techniques as well as the conditions for Norwegian folk artists of the previous generation.
