Christian Krohg's Naturalism

"The book is extremely rich in its panoptical overview and fills a major gap as the first English-language book-length study on Krohg."—Reinhold Heller, author of Munch: His Life and Work and Munch: The Scream

"Sjåstad's dynamic study blends keen analysis of paintings with an illuminating discussion of Naturalism, placing Krohg securely among the finest of Europe's Naturalists."—Linda Haverty Rugg, University of California, Berkeley

"Christian Krohg's inventiveness, cosmopolitanism, and progressive politics will surprise many English-speaking readers. Sjåstad's book will surely insert Krohg into any serious future study of later nineteenth-century art, expanding the geography of modernism and the contours of Naturalism."—Patricia G. Berman, author of In Another Light: Danish Painting in the Nineteenth Century
