About Museum’s Collection of Oil Paintings

The museum’s oil paintings collection includes artworks by American, European, and Asian artists from the 17th century to as recent as 2017. These paintings give a retrospective look at the progression and changes in art from the past to the present. From allegorical paintings to luminist landscapes, these works offer a unique perspective on how the use of color, light, and rendering can be applied to change how the viewer relates to the works.

About the artist

Frits Thaulow was a Norwegian impressionist painter and engraver. Originally wanting to become a marine painter, he studied at the art academy in Copenhagen (1870-1873) as well as with the Danish marine specialist C. F. Sorensen (1818-1879). During the 1880s, he was prominent in establishing more progressive artists’ associations and exhibition societies in Norway and was regarded as the leading Norwegian artist of the period. He decided to move to France in 1892, living at Camiers, Etaples, Montreuil, as well as Paris (1892-1894, 1898-1906) and Dieppe (1894-1898). He painted about fifty pieces a year during this time. Thaulow painted almost exclusively in the schools of impressionism and realism.

頓入乾坤大千界

H.H.第三世多杰羌佛彩筆下的幻景世界。宛似天然，更勝天然，這並不是一句空話。妙勝造化的精妍之處，盡表現於細節與氣韻的靈動之中，也就是細如纖絲的筆觸、氣色、乾濕、輕重快慢等虛實交錯所產生的微觀動韻。以色彩變異而言，神幻絕色，璀璨靡極，非筆墨能形容；又非言語能道盡，也非塵俗境所能媲美，更非世間凡筆所能冀及。
