The story behind the motif
Poster with a photograph from the unveiling of the Kristian IV statue on Stortorget in Oslo in 1880.
In the picture we see a crowded square where people stand lined up around the recently unveiled statue, which honors Norway's founder of Oslo, King Christian IV. The buildings in the background reflect the urban architecture of the time, and the scene captures an important ceremonial event.
In 1880, Oslo, then known as Kristiania, was in a period of growth and development. The statue became a symbol of the city's history and identity, amid a time of national pride and cultural flourishing.
Frame not included.
