The gallery was recently amalgamated with the former National Museum of Art, Architecture, and Design. It houses Norway's largest collection of art created before 1945. The deep-red Edvard Munch room holds such major paintings as The Dance of Life, Scream, and several self-portraits. Classic fjord and country landscapes by Hans Gude and Adolph Tidemand -- including Bridal Voyage on the Hardangerfjord -- share space in galleries with other works by major Norwegian artists. The museum also has works by Monet, Renoir, Van Gogh, and Gauguin.
