Bergen Art Museum

This museum occupies 4 buildings on the lovely city center lake I mentioned in the previous post. We spent a few hours there. It was a good respite from the pouring rain. Norway is a young country only about 200 years old. One building featured Norwegian artists beginning with J C Dahl, the father of Norwegian art especially painting as well as Edmund Munch.
I loved this picture of these Norwegian children. You can see that the older boys job was to rock the cradle while they were playing.
