EDITORS COMMENTS
Leif Ericsson, the intrepid Norse explorer, stands on the deck of his long ship, pointing towards a vast expanse of ocean. In this oil painting by Christian Krohg from 1893, we witness the pivotal moment when Ericsson discovers America. The artist skillfully captures the essence of medieval maritime exploration and fine art in this masterpiece. Dressed in traditional Norse clothing, Leif Ericsson embodies bravery and curiosity as he sets foot on new lands. With his crewmen by his side, they embark on an extraordinary expedition that would forever change history. The painting's attention to detail transports us back to a time when Viking explorers roamed the seas with their iconic long ships. Christian Krohg's brushstrokes breathe life into this historical event as waves crash against the vessel and sunlight dances upon its wooden deck. This artwork is part of Bradley Smith's Carousel Collection and showcases Krohg's exceptional talent for capturing nautical scenes. Displayed proudly in New York's Granger Art collection, this print invites viewers to immerse themselves in Leif Ericsson's remarkable journey across uncharted waters. It serves as a reminder of humanity’s enduring spirit of discovery and our relentless pursuit to uncover new worlds.
