Thomas Fearnley: A collection of 51 paintings (HD)

Description: "Thomas Fearnley was born in Frederikshald (now Halden) in Østfold, Norway. He was the son of merchant Thomas Fearnley (1768–1834) and Maren Sophie Paus (1782–1838). He was the brother of astronomer and professor Carl Frederik Fearnley (1818-1890). Fearnley's grandfather, merchant Thomas Fearnley (1729–1798), immigrated from Yorkshire, England to Frederikshald, Norway in 1753. His mother belonged to the prominent Norwegian Paus family.

In 1840, he married Cecilia Catharine Andresen (1817–1888). She was the daughter of his benefactor, banker Nicolai Andresen (1781–1861), who founded what became the Andresen Bank, one of Norway's largest commercial banks of its time. In the autumn of 1841, the couple went to Amsterdam for the birth of their only child, Thomas Nicolay Fearnley (1841-1927), who became a Norwegian shipping magnate. His grandsons were shipping magnate Thomas Fearnley (1880–1961) and land owner N. O. Young Fearnley. His descendants founded the Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art in 1993."
