Emil Carlsen’s Quiet Harmonies at the Lyman Allyn Art Museum!

This exhibition presents Carlsen’s compelling landscapes and seascapes, celebrating the span of his career and emphasizing his work as a teacher. A master colorist, he possessed a sophisticated sense of design and an ability to find subtle beauty in the everyday subject. After 1900 Carlsen worked for a time in Connecticut, drawn to the state’s rural beauty and its artist colonies.
