Yesterday there was an art exhibit at my dads work for my great grandpa Torlief S. Knaphus, who was a sculptor and artist from Norway. One of his most famous pieces is the Handcart Monument which is at Temple Square. A smaller version was recreated to be sent to the Norwegian Immigrant Museum. I found out that we come from Vikings and Kings. It really turned out awesome and was so neat to see all this artwork together for a once in alifetime showing. See this.
