OriginalEugène Jansson (1862-1915) was a Swedish Post-Impressionistic painter known for nighttime land- and cityscapes dominated by shades of blue. This Sunrise over the Rooftops dates from 1903. At 14 Jansson survived scarlet fever. In the 1880s he studied art at a private school in Stockholm, and also under Swedish painter Edvard Perséus. Subsequently he was influenced by the work of the Norwegian painter Edvard Munch. Jansson, weakened from scarlet fever, died after a fall in 1915, aged 53.
