This painting, titled A Fisherman, was done by the Swedish artist Anders Zorn (1860-1920) painted this work in St. Ives, in Cornwall, England. Born in Sweden, he traveled and then settled in England in 1885 and set up a studio. He studied river scenes in England and waves effects in Sweden, and in the latter study he gave proof of his capacity for solving technical problems and of translating his mastery into the work of his brush. He was able to transfer the sea to his canvas with that fresh, destrous touch that is characteristic of his work.
