"Ruskevær" is a painting by the Norwegian realist artist Christian Krohg, who was a leading figure in the transition from romanticism to naturalism in Norwegian art. The painting, whose title translates to "Rough Weather" in English, is a testament to Krohg's fascination with the sea and the lives of the fishermen and coastal communities of Norway. Created in 1892, the work is a prime example of Krohg's skill in capturing the raw power of nature and the human struggle against it.

The painting depicts a dramatic seascape with fishermen braving the tumultuous waters, showcasing Krohg's ability to convey movement and emotion through his brushwork. The dark, brooding tones and the dynamic composition reflect the perilous conditions faced by the seafarers. "Ruskevær" is celebrated for its technical prowess and its poignant portrayal of the themes of human endurance and the forces of nature, which were central to Krohg's oeuvre.

Christian Krohg (1852–1925) was not only an artist but also a journalist, author, and social critic, and his works often contained social commentary, reflecting his concern for the plight of the underprivileged. "Ruskevær" is part of Krohg's broader body of work that includes other notable paintings such as "Albertine i politilægens venteværelse" (Albertine at the Police Doctor's Waiting Room) and "Hardt le" (Hard Weather), which similarly explore the struggles of everyday people.

As a significant piece in Christian Krohg's body of work, "Ruskevær" is held in high regard in the canon of Norwegian art history and continues to be studied for its artistic and cultural significance. The painting is a valuable asset in understanding the social realism movement in Scandinavia and the broader context of 19th-century European art.
