I have an oil painting signed by 'Rolf Henriksen'. I purchased the painting in Watertown, South Dakota . In searching the internet in an effort to learn more about the artist I found that an individual named Rolf Henriksen was identified as the 2nd Mate on the Orion. I am wondering if this individual is the same person as the artist who created my painting. The painting is an interior room of a traditional Norwegian log home, with a white stone hearth. The painting is titled "Tyrihaugen" and is dated 1941. I would be interested in hearing if anyone may know whether the Orion's Rolf Henriksen is the same person as the Rolf Henriksen who signed this painting. Please contact me on the email provided with this post if you have any information on this individual. Thank you - Regards, Bobbe
