Alfred Hauge (painter)

Alfred Hauge (1876-1954) was a Norwegian painter known primarily for his landscapes and portraits. Born in Bergen, Norway, Hauge received his artistic training at the Norwegian National Academy of Craft and Art Industry and later studied under several prominent Norwegian painters. His work often depicted the coastal scenery and fjord landscapes of Western Norway, rendered in a realist style with impressionistic influences. Hauge's portraits captured the likenesses of notable figures within his community. He exhibited regularly throughout his career, and his paintings can be found in various private collections and public institutions in Norway. While not considered a leading figure of Norwegian art history, Hauge's work provides valuable insights into the artistic trends and visual culture of Norway in the early to mid-20th century.
