Storm Ending, Norwegian Fijord is a 1922 by Muirhead Bone, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a quiet fjord with calm water and rolling hills in the distance. The sky is soft and pale, with just a hint of clouds breaking up. The colors are muted—greens, blues, and grays—giving it a peaceful, almost dreamy feel. The artist left a small signature in the corner, and the water’s surface is smooth, almost mirror-like. The title says it’s a storm ending, so the scene might have been rough before. If you like this style, check out Impressionism.
Sir Muirhead Bone (23 March 1876 – 21 October 1953) was a Scottish etcher and watercolourist who became known for his depiction of industrial and architectural subjects and his work as a war artist in both the First and Second World Wars.
