"The South Strand" by Emil Carlsen is a captivating landscape painting that showcases the artist's mastery of light, color, and atmosphere. Created around the turn of the 20th century, this artwork exemplifies Carlsen's transition from still life to landscape painting, demonstrating his ability to capture the essence of the American countryside. The painting likely depicts a serene coastal scene, with Carlsen's signature soft, pastel tones evoking a tranquil atmosphere. His skillful use of light infuses the canvas with a luminous quality, creating a dreamy, almost ethereal ambiance characteristic of his later works. Carlsen's composition emphasizes simplicity and harmony, with large areas of sky, land, or sea dominating the canvas. The artist's technique of employing subtle color gradations and delicate brushwork adds depth and texture to the scene, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the peaceful coastal environment. "The South Strand" reflects Carlsen's admiration for French landscape artists and their plein-air painting techniques. The work embodies the artist's unique style, blending elements of Impressionism with his own Nordic sensibilities, resulting in a lyrical interpretation of nature. This painting stands as a testament to Carlsen's evolution as an artist and his significant contribution to American Impressionism. It captures the beauty of the American landscape while showcasing Carlsen's exceptional ability to create emotive, atmospheric scenes that continue to captivate viewers today.

Quality You Can See (and Feel)
We're serious about quality. Our canvases are made with a super-smooth cotton and polyester base, treated with a special coating. This means your images will be sharp, vibrant, and full of life. Plus, we use inks specifically designed to ensure the canvas colors will stay stunning for years to come. To avoid cropping images and affecting the canvas's quality, our canvases do not have the printed image extending onto the sides of the frame which is left white. Because of how we make our canvases, there might be a tiny difference in size (around +/- 1/8" or 3.2mm).
Good for Your Home, Good for the Earth
We believe in doing things right. That's why the frames for our canvases are crafted from radiata pine, sourced from forests that are managed responsibly. You can feel good knowing your art is helping to support sustainable practices.

We know you're excited to get your new art on the wall, so we've made it super simple! Each canvas comes with back hanging included for convenient placement. Just unpack it, find the perfect spot, and you're good to go. For most canvases, you can use nails but if you're purchasing a size greater than 30 inches you can also use screws.
