Thomas Fearnley (1802–1842): oil sketches from the collection of Asbjorn Lunde
At TEFAF 2019, Day & Faber will be presenting a collection of oil sketches on paper by the Norwegian artist Thomas Fearnley (1802–1842). They come directly from the estate of Asbjorn Lunde. The majority were exhibited at the London National Gallery’s exhibition, 'Forests, Rocks and Torrents: Norwegian and Swiss Landscapes from the Lunde Collection' in 2011 and at the Barber Institute’s exhibition 'In Front of Nature: The European Landscapes of Thomas Fearnley' in Birmingham in 2012-2013. Asbjorn Lunde (1927–2017), a New Yorker of Norwegian descent, formed, during his long life, the world’s leading private collection of 19th century Norwegian and Swiss landscape paintings.
