Dear Fran.
I read your notice about this man, and MAYBE he is a relative of mine,- but I did not know that he painted! He was a seller of art/antiquities in Oslo, and his full name was Harald Holst Halvorsen. He died several years ago,(probably born in the 1880's). He had one daughter, Anne Birgitte.
Unfortunately, that's all I know.
The whole Halvorsen-family are descendants from sailors, so IF he painted, it would be natural that it would be something with sea/boats/sailing. His family originated from the Larvik/Sandefjord/Skien-district along the coastline from Vestfold to East Agder (Risør).
Well, that's all I know, Fran.
Best wishes from Odd Halvorsen,
