1927
About the Item
Carl Johansson's painting from 1927, most likely depicting a view from Nordingrå, encapsulates the serene beauty of the northern Swedish landscape. Born in Härnösand, Johansson drew much of his inspiration from the vast and peaceful sceneries of Norrland. The artwork showcases his skill in capturing the natural light and atmosphere, a hallmark of his work. His technique involves soft, sweeping brushstrokes and a delicate palette that highlights the tranquil greenery and expansive water views typical of the Norrland region.
Johansson was a versatile artist, having also painted landscapes from places like France, Tenerife, and Italy. However, his heart often returned to Norrland, earning him the nickname "The Painter of Norrland." The sunlight in his paintings is almost always positioned at a 30-degree angle from the north-northwest, giving a consistent sense of time and place in his works.
His artistic potential was first noticed by Conny Burman, his drawing teacher at Klara elementary school, and he was later mentored by Edvard Perséus during his high school years. He began formal art training at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts in 1882, under the guidance of Perséus and Per Daniel Holm. In 1885, he joined the group of artists known as the "Opponents," which led to his departure from the Academy. This group sought to challenge the established norms in Swedish art.
Johansson’s works are appreciated for their gentle realism and deep connection to the landscapes of northern Sweden. His pieces are part of several esteemed collections, including those at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Kalmar Art Museum, and the municipal collection of Hudiksvall.

Carl Johansson began his art studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in 1882, where he had Edvard Perséus and Per Daniel Holm as teachers. He joined the Opponents in 1885, which meant that he was forced to leave the academy. Johansson made study trips to France in 1891–1892, Tenerife in 1894 and Italy in 1901 and 1914, also participated in the World's Fair in Paris in 1889, the anniversary exhibition in Buenos Aires in 1910 and San Francisco in 1915. Johansson started by painting small, neatly painted landscape paintings in a traditional style, but after he came into contact with the art of the French artists Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro, his paintings became more impressionistic. He worked with clear and cold colours, with a factual analysis of the photography and where the vegetation appeared more markedly. In his older days, he used a noticeable blue tone in his paintings, giving him the nickname Ultramarin-Johansson. Since he took most of his motifs from Norrland, he also got the epithet Norrlandsmålaren (The Northern Painter).
