What is the story of the painting of peace?
To the best of my recolection the story went somthing like this: In the medieval times there was a king that wanted a painting in his room portrait representation of peace. He wanted to glance at it in bad times to become peacefully inside his soul so he declared a contest by decree to all paint artists in his kingdom to make a painting that resembled peace and the winner would have a good reward. All artists turned their work for the king to examine. The king saw a painting of a lake and children calmly wetting their feet in the lake. The next was that of a sea with no waves and a fisherman calmly sleeping in his boat. The next painting enraged the king. It was that of a storm. The king had thought someone was making fun at his authority and he was made to be brought forward before the king. It was an old man and the king asked him if he was making fun of him. He wanted paintings of peace and you bring a painting of a storm. The old man looked at the king in the eye and told him to look carefully in the painting. The king did so and he understood for there was a nest in the rocks of a cliff where the storm was passing through with a bird hugging the newly born. Indeed that was peace and the king declared this painting the winner by decree.
Is there a painter by the name of O Brantenberg?
Yes. I have a painting of his/her's that my father had purchased approximately 40 years ago in Vancouver. I have a painting (landscape) in oil that I love by Otto Brantenberg. I myself would love more history on him. The painting I have was purchased in 1971 through a Younkers store or something like that. ---O. Brantenberg was born in Berlin, Germany. When he visited his grandparents as a child, Brantenberg was enamored with the forest -- a love that would be pervasive in his later artworks. Brantenberg's nature scenes have been displayed in galleries around Germany and France.
