After the Norwegian artist Ole Peter Hansen Balling had sketched President Abraham Lincoln at the White House in the fall of 1864, he obtained permission to paint life portraits of leading Union generals. Balling joined General Grant at City Point, Virginia, during the campaign against Richmond and spent five weeks there sketching officers in the field. Philip H. Sheridan was painted while in the Shenandoah Valley; the portraits of William . Sherman and George H. Thomas were done in Washington, D.C., after the war’s end. The image of George A. Custer, second from the left, is thought to be the only portrait painted of him from life.

艺术家简介

early life and training

ole peter hansen balling, a norwegian artist, was born in kristiania (now oslo) in 1823. he began his artistic journey as a student of norwegian artist ferdinand jonas gjøs and later trained under danish artists, including jacob emilius wnderlich. balling's early training laid the foundation for his future success in capturing the essence of his subjects.

a career spanning continents

balling's artistic career took him to various parts of the world. he studied at art academies in berlin (1843-1845) and copenhagen (1846-1848), and later, in 1854, he honed his skills under thomas couture in paris. this exposure to diverse artistic styles and techniques is reflected in the breadth of his work.

volunteering in the first schleswig-holstein war, balling demonstrated his commitment to service, which later led to his command of the 145th new york volunteer infantry regiment during the american civil war.
his time in the united states (1856-1874) saw the creation of numerous portraits, including those of union army generals and prominent american statesmen, such as ulysses s. grant, chester arthur, and john brown.
upon returning to norway, balling operated a painter workshop in horten, capturing the likenesses of norwegian naval officers and members of the royal bernadotte family.

legacy and awards

balling's work is featured in several prestigious institutions, including:

national portrait gallery in washington, d.c., where his portraits are a testament to his skill.
west point military academy in new york and the united states naval academy in annapolis, maryland, also showcase his work.
in norway, his pieces can be found at the royal norwegian navy museum in horten and the national museum of art, architecture and design in oslo.
