Lars Norrman was a Swedish artist who had a very particular bold, colourful style. He was heavily influenced by long trips during his childhood when he traveled with his father, a sea captain. They visited Senegal, Greenland and Bulgaria, amongst others. 

Lars trained at the Otte Sköld's painting school in Stokholm and during the 1930s for Fernand Léger in Paris. He uses warm strong colours and his paintings are usually of cultural interest.
