This atmospheric view shows the northern horizon from the summit of Avasaxa in Finnish Lapland, illuminated by the pale light of the midnight sun. The composition was part of the series Voyage Pittoresque au Cap Nord, capturing Arctic landscapes with scientific clarity and romantic sensitivity.

Anders Fredrik Skjöldebrand (1749–1834) was a Swedish nobleman, military officer, artist, and politician. His visual documentation of northern Scandinavia became a landmark in early Arctic exploration and visual geography. His engravings blend precise observation with sublime naturalism.
