Nestled in the heart of Norway, the National Gallery houses an impressive array of paintings, drawings, and sculptures. Established in 1837, it's the country's largest public collection. A must-see for art lovers, the gallery boasts Edvard Munch's iconic masterpieces "The Scream" and "Madonna." These works are not just paintings; they are emotional experiences that resonate with viewers long after they've left the gallery.
The permanent exhibition is a treasure trove of national icons, showcasing art from the romantic period up to the mid-1900s. It's a visual journey through time, revealing the evolution of Norwegian art and culture. But the gallery doesn't stop there: it also features a stunning array of works by international artists, including the mesmerizing pieces of the French impressionists. Imagine standing in front of a Monet or a Degas, feeling the brushstrokes come alive as you ponder the stories behind each canvas.
Oslo itself is a city that beautifully blends the old with the new. After a day at the gallery, take a leisurely stroll along the bustling streets, where modern architecture meets historical charm. Don't miss out on trying some local delicacies at the nearby food markets. The city's vibrant atmosphere and friendly locals make it a memorable destination for any traveler.
