Frits Thaulow
(1847 - 1906)
 
Frits Thaulow was a Norwegian Impressionist painter, best known for his naturalistic depictions of landscape.
In the summer of 1905 Frits Thaulow spent some time with his family at La Panne, a small bathing resort on the Flemish coast. He had acquired a small automobile (one of the first of its kind on the market), and it appears that he went on trips in it to small Belgian towns in the area.
