EDITORS COMMENTS
This pastel sketch, titled "Streamers of Aurora Borealis" transports us back to the Arctic on 28 November 1893. Created by Fridtjof Nansen, a renowned explorer and author, this artwork offers a glimpse into the mesmerizing beauty of the northern lights. The streamers of vibrant colors dance across the night sky, illuminating the frozen landscape below. Nansen's delicate strokes and expert use of color bring to life this natural phenomenon that has fascinated humans for centuries. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost feel the chill in the air and hear the silence that envelops these remote regions. This particular piece was originally created as an illustration for Nansen's book "Farthest North". It serves as a visual representation of his extraordinary journey through uncharted territories in search of new discoveries. With each stroke, Nansen captures not only the physicality but also the ethereal nature of these celestial lights. As we admire this artwork from our private collection today, let it remind us of humanity's enduring spirit of exploration and curiosity about our world. Let it inspire us to seek out moments like these – where nature reveals its most awe-inspiring wonders – and appreciate their fleeting beauty.
