PETER CHRISTEN ASBJØRNSEN (1812-1885) and JØRGEN MOE (1813-1882), friends from childhood with a long-standing interest in their country's folklore traditions, were inspired by Jacob Grimm to compile a collection of Norwegian folk tales, Norske Folkeeventyr, in 1879. Norske Folkeeventyr continues to be in print to this day.ERIK WERENSKOLD (1855-1938) was a noted Norwegian painter and illustrator. At the time a young, relatively unknown painter, he was among the artists whose drawings appeared in the first illustrated edition of Norske Folkeeventyr in 1879. They established him as one of Norway's foremost artists.THEODOR KITTELSEN(1857-1914) was a noted Norwegian artist. At the time young and unknown, he was invited by Erik Werenskold in 1881 to collaborate on a second illustrated edition of Norske Folkeeventyr, which included only their drawings.
