Emanuel Aage Petersen

Emanuel Aage Petersen (1894 - 1948) was active/lived in Denmark.  Emanuel Petersen is known for Paintings of snowy mountains, marine scenes with icebergs, open seas.

Emanuel Aage Petersen was part of the group of "painters of Greenland", called this way since they painted the overwhelming landscape of the Greenlandic nature in numerous occasions. The definition of "Greenland painter" emerged as a particular genre in the middle of the 19th century. 

At that time, some Danish artists traveled to the unknown Greenland and used its landscape and people as motifs in their paintings, due to the curiosity that such a distant place aroused in Europeans. The paintings of Aage Petersen, who traveled on numerous occasions from the 1920s to the 1940s, reflect the cold and desolate aura of indigenous Greenland through a romantic lens. 

In doing so, he handles the reflection of the sun on the calm surfaces, especially on the silvery waters and the compact icebergs, in an exceptional way.
