Fanciful wood carvings, tableware and furniture adorned with rosemaling, snowflake-patterned knitted garments, and costumes with white Hardanger embroidery -- the unique highly organic designs that characterize Norwegian crafts have captured the admiration of collectors around the world. In this fascinating study of the migration of the folk art tradition from Norway to America, 239 colors photographs display objects that span four centuries and include some of the finest holdings of the Norwegian museums, valuable family heirlooms brought to America, and 20th-century works created by Norwegian-American artisans
