"Gammelt Kvernhus" (English: Old Mill House) is a painting by the Norwegian romantic artist August Cappelen, who is known for his evocative landscapes that often reflect a melancholic and dramatic atmosphere. Created in the mid-19th century, this work exemplifies Cappelen's fascination with the Norwegian wilderness and his ability to capture the interplay of light and shadow in natural settings.

The painting depicts an old, abandoned mill house surrounded by the dense and untamed forest characteristic of the Norwegian landscape. The mill, being reclaimed by nature, stands as a testament to the passage of time and the enduring power of the natural world. Cappelen's use of dark, rich colors and his attention to textural detail create a sense of depth and realism, while also imbuing the scene with a sense of mystery and nostalgia.

As with many of Cappelen's works, "Gammelt Kvernhus" is notable for its romantic sensibility and the emotional response it evokes in the viewer. The painting invites contemplation of the themes of decay, the sublime in nature, and the relationship between human constructs and the environment. It is a fine example of Norwegian romanticism and contributes to our understanding of the cultural and artistic milieu of Scandinavia in the 19th century.

"Gammelt Kvernhus" is held in high regard for its artistic merit and is considered an important piece within Cappelen's oeuvre. It continues to be studied and appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and as an expression of the romantic spirit that defined much of the art of this period. The painting is also a valuable cultural artifact, offering insight into the historical and environmental consciousness of Norway during a time of burgeoning national identity.
