Brede sejl over Nordsjø går 1895

"Brede sejl over Nordsjø går" (Wide Sails Over the North Sea Go) is a 1895 painting by Danish artist Thorolf Pedersen. It depicts a Viking ship sailing through stormy seas, a common theme in Pedersen's oeuvre. The dramatic lighting and dynamic composition, capturing the ship's struggle against the elements, create a sense of raw power and resilience, typical of the artist's style. The painting is held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, Denmark.
