Biography: Chris Jorgensen was born in Oslo, Norway, in 1860, and moved to San Francisco with his mother when he was a boy. He studied there at the School of Design, where he'd later teach. He established a studio on Post Street, finding commercial success. He married the daughter of a prominent San Francisco family, and with his bride traveled the state extensively. He completed a series of California Mission paintings, and painted in Yosemite for many years. His home there is now used by the U.S. Forest Service. Following a move to Carmel, Jorgensen settled in Piedmont, California, where he continued to paint until his death in 1935.
