There are no known descriptions of this work, but the title indicates that the subject is a sun-drenched landscape.

The work, entitled “Water Colour, Sunshine” at Astrup’s exhibition at Blomqvist in 1905, was bought by a Professor Stang of the University of Oslo for 10 Norwegian kroner. It is reasonable to believe that this was Fredrik Stang (1867–1941), a professor of jurisprudence. Its subsequent provenance is unknown.
