What was Dahl's idea on Norwegian beauty?
My concept of 'Norwegian Beauty' was not merely an aesthetic judgment but a deeply felt connection to the unique character of our land. I saw in the wild, untamed nature of Norway—its rugged mountains, powerful waterfalls, and dramatic coastlines—a reflection of the national spirit. This beauty was not polished or domesticated; it was raw, powerful, and imbued with a sense of the sublime, capable of inspiring awe and a profound sense of belonging in those who truly observed it.
