Painters of Sweden, Norway and Finland, from the medieval church wall painters to the national romantic, symbolist and naturalist artists of the late nineteenth century, who shaped a Nordic tradition of landscape, folk life, portraiture and monumental decoration. Their subjects include Swedish farm and family scenes, wall paintings in medieval churches, northern forests and lakes, and the dark and dreamlike visions of Finnish symbolism, set beside the monumental murals of Norway.
