WHAT DOES ROSEMALING MEAN IN ENGLISH?

rosemaling

Rosemaling

Rosemåling, or rosemaling, Norwegian for "decorative painting", is the name of a form of decorative folk art that originated in the rural valleys of Norway. Some art historians interpret "rose" as a reference to the rose flower, although the floral elements are often so stylized that no specific flower is identifiable and not used at all in some designs. Rosemåling is a style of decorative painting on wood that uses stylized flower ornamentation, scrollwork, lining and geometric elements, often in flowing patterns. Landscape and architectural elements are also common. Many other decorative painting techniques were used such as glazing, spattering, marbelizing, manipulating the paint with the fingers or other objects, etc. Rosemaling is also common in Sweden where it is also, incorrectly, called kurbitsmålning or simply kurbits, where kurbits refers to depictions of Cucurbita. As with the Norwegian counterpart it was most popular from the latter half of the 18th century and until the 1860s.
