| Henrik Lund (1879–1935) | ||||||||||
| Born in Bergen, Lund was a neo-impressionist painter and graphic artist. He spent some time at sea before studying at the painting school established by Norwegian painter Harriet Backer, between 1899 and 1903. He then moved to Copenhagen, where he lived for about five years. Lund held a number of exhibitions, including in Berlin and Copenhagen in 1911. As a portraitist, his work was in high demand among celebrities and prominent figures of his time. Many of his portraits were completed in etching and lithography; although executed with accuracy, they were sometimes noted for lacking depth. He also painted landscapes and garden scenes in light, cool tones, often using motifs from Skåtøy, where he spent his summers. Lund held a number of administrative roles, including serving as a juror at the Jubilee Exhibition at Frogner in 1914, and as chairman of the Association of Norwegian Printmakers from 1919 to 1925. He died in Oslo. | ||||||||||
