"Eel Catcher at Night" is a painting by Christian Krohg, a prominent Norwegian realist artist who lived from 1852 to 1925. Krohg was known for his depictions of everyday life and social issues, often highlighting the struggles of the working class and the poor. The painting "Eel Catcher at Night" exemplifies Krohg's commitment to realism and his interest in capturing the harsh realities of labor.

The artwork portrays an eel catcher engaged in his nocturnal work, a subject that reflects Krohg's fascination with the lives of ordinary people and their occupations. The use of light and shadow in the painting is particularly notable, as it emphasizes the solitary nature of the eel catcher's task and the quiet, intense atmosphere of the night. Krohg's brushwork and use of color convey the texture of the water and the night sky, creating a sense of immediacy and immersion in the scene.

"Eel Catcher at Night" is part of Krohg's broader oeuvre, which includes other significant works such as "Albertine i politilægens venteværelse" (Albertine at the Police Doctor's Waiting Room) and "Trett" (Tired), both of which explore social themes and the human condition. As with many of Krohg's paintings, "Eel Catcher at Night" is likely to have been inspired by his observations and experiences in the coastal communities of Norway, where fishing was a common livelihood.

The painting is an example of Krohg's skill in storytelling through visual means and his ability to evoke empathy for his subjects. It stands as a testament to his legacy as a leading figure in the naturalist movement in Norwegian art, which aimed to portray life with honesty and without idealization. "Eel Catcher at Night" remains an important work for its artistic merit and its contribution to the understanding of Norwegian culture and society at the turn of the 20th century.
