EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The inhabitants of the coast, 1884" by Fredrik Kolstoe takes us back in time to a bustling harbour town. The oil on canvas painting, housed in the Bergen Art Museum in Norway, beautifully captures the essence of coastal life during that era. In this vibrant scene, we see a diverse group of individuals engaged in various activities. A fisherman stands proudly beside his catch, showcasing the fruits of his labor. Nearby, an elderly man wearing a woolly hat and scarf offers his goods for trade. The quay is filled with boats and tugboats transporting goods along the coast. The atmosphere is alive with energy as townsfolk go about their daily business. The wharf buzzes with activity as people negotiate deals and exchange wares. Seagulls soar above, adding to the coastal ambiance. Kolstoe's attention to detail is evident throughout the painting. From the intricate brushwork depicting each individual's clothing to the realistic portrayal of animals and wildlife near the sea, every element comes together harmoniously. "The inhabitants of the coast" serves as a timeless reminder of our connection to nature and our reliance on trade for survival. It invites viewers to step into this historical moment and experience firsthand what life was like for those living by these shores over a century ago.
