The night watch that became a title
The title is a nautical term, not a task involving dogs: in Norwegian, hundevakt denotes the night watch aboard ship, usually between midnight and four. Krohg painted the work in 1898, and the National Museum acquired it that same year – a title carrying the seafarers’ own rhythm of the day and night.

The story behind the motif

Poster with the painting "On Dog Watch" by the Norwegian artist Christian Krohg (1852-1925) who is known for his realistic depictions of life in Norway, especially in marine paintings and socially engaged works. 

The painting was made in 1898 and depicts a sailor standing at the helm of a ship, with an intense gaze directed at the stormy sea. 

Christian Krohg studied at art academies in Oslo and Paris and became a leading figure in Norwegian realism. Krohg was particularly noted for his marine paintings and portraits, as well as his works that highlighted social issues, such as The alcoholic (1885). In addition to his artistry, he was also a committed journalist and writer who fought for workers' rights and social justice.
