Per Krohg was a painter who was one of the major figures in the renascence of mural painting in Norway after 1920. He was the son of the painter Christian Krohg and studied under him at the Académie Colarossi (1903–07) in Paris.
Jako malíř začínal v realisticko-naturalistické tradici, studoval v Německu a Francii, kde byl ovlivněn impresionismem. Působil jako pedagog na oselské Akademii umění, kde mezi jeho nejznámější žáky patřil Edvard Munch.
In 1924, Krohg took his son away. In 1927 Pascin was threatened with the loss of American citizenship and was forced to live in New York for at least one year.
