Oscar Törnå was of French ancestry living in Sweden. He began receiving an education in the trades when he was 14, but eventually displayed an aptitude for art. With the support of some wealthy friends, he enrolled at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts and took part in the Academy's exhibition of 1868. He was awarded a medal in 1870 for one of his first landscape paintings. He later moved to France where he began painting ‘en plein air’. On his return to Sweden several of his works were purchased by the Royal Academy to be used for study material in their landscape classes.

A note on the antique frame: this bears signs of historic woodworm, which has been treated. Our paintings often bear some marks from the passage of time and can be beautifully faded. Frames can be weathered, chipped and cracked. We see this as an advantage and hope you will too. Please study the photos carefully.
