The Ringerike style includes foliage ornaments and interlacing. The style is namedafter the district in Norway where examples of Ringerike exist in local sandstone. The

Ringerike style can also be seen in English manuscripts, and there are also some carvingsinivorywhich are done in this style. The Urnes style is named after the detailed designs on thecarved doors ofUrnes Stave Churchin theSognefjord.The style has influencedEnglishChristian art.[1]

Ship Museum,Bygdy.The head of the ship represents a roaring beast with surfaceornamentation in the form of interwoven animals that twist and turn as they are gripping andsnapping.[2]

During the 11th century many Scandinavians became Christian. However, their abstract artpersisted. The decoration of the wooden portal of the stave church located in Urnes, Norway isabstractly made up of animal forms that tightly intertwine with flexible plant stalks following a

spiral rhythm. This is one of the few remains left from this time which were later incorporated inthe walls of a 12th-century church.

During this time while the abstract and animal motifs were spreading in art, the northernEurope Christian missionaries were building monasteries and sponsoring art with Christiancontent which was very different from art created before.[2]

During the 11th century many Scandinavians became Christian. However, their abstract artpersisted. The decoration of the wooden portal of the stave church located in Urnes, Norway isabstractly made up of animal forms that tightly intertwine with flexible plant stalks following aspiral rhythm. This is one of the few remains left from this time which were later incorporated inthe walls of a 12th-century church.

During this time while the abstract and animal motifs were spreading in art, the northern

Europe Christian missionaries were building monasteries and sponsoring art with Christiancontent which was very different from art created before.[2]

Norwegian art came into its own in the 19th century, especially with the early landscapepainters. Until that time, the art scene in Norway had been dominated by imports fromGermany and Holland and by the influence of Danish rule. Initially withlandscape art,laterwithImpressionismandRealism.One of Norway's most well-known artists isEdvardMunch(18631944).





Icelandic art has been built on northern European traditions of the nineteenth century, butdeveloped in distinct directions in the twentieth century, influenced in particular by the unique

Icelandic landscape as well as by Icelandic mythology and culture.
