Thurmann, son of pastor Carl Fredrik Thurmann and his wife Ottilia Christine Ottesen, later also brother-in-law of mission bishop Nils Astrup (1843-1919), attended the Royal Drawing School of Christiania in 1854. Presumably he was tutored there by Joachim Frich . Then, like many other Norwegian painters of his time, he went to Düsseldorf . From 1856 to 1859 he was a student at the Düsseldorf Art Academy . There were Josef Winter Gerst and Hans Gude his teachers. He then stayed for several years in Munich , from where he undertook study trips to Bavaria and Italy . He married Anna Maria Catharina Enzinger (1842–1925), who gave birth to eight children. In 1869 he became a teacher of freehand drawing at the Royal Drawing School of Christiania, from 1884 to 1912 he worked there as a senior teacher. Between 1873 and 1875 he replaced Morten Müller at Johan Fredrik Eckersberg's drawing school , which Knud Bergslien had taken over. There was Nikolai Ulfsten one of his students. From 1870 he went on several study trips, for example to Austria and Italy, Denmark (1888, after 1894) and to Germany (around 1890).
