Per Lysne (December 8, 1880 – September 21, 1947) was a Norwegian-American artist most associated with bringing the traditional Norwegian folk art of Rosemaling to the United States.〔(''A Quest for Norwegian Folk Art in America'' (Tora Bøhn. Norwegian-American Historical association. Volume 19: Page 116) )〕 〔(''The art of rosemaling'' (Recollection Wisconsin. October 20, 2014) )〕 ==Biography== Per A. Lysne was born on the Ljøsne farm in Lærdal, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway. He had been trained in rosemaling by Anders Olsen, an artist whose work was recognized at the Exposition Universelle at Paris in 1893. Lysne immigrated to Stoughton, Wisconsin with his wife in 1907. He specialized in redecorating antique chests and painting large platters. He developed a thriving rosemaling enterprise and taught the art to a select few. His signature piece, the smorgasbord plate, was not an object that typically had been decorated, but Lysne's new form had a pervasive influence.〔(Lysne, Per 1880 - 1947 (Dictionary of Wisconsin History) )〕 〔''Lærdal Bygdebok II'', Espe, Alfred - Hovland, Kåre, (Lærdal Kommune, 1990), side 116〕 The Stoughton Historical Museum has an exhibit devoted to Lysne's work. The Per Lysne Collection is maintained at the Vesterheim Norwegian-American Museum. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Per Lysne」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
