Henrik Louis Lund (8 September 1879 – 23 December 1935) was a Norwegian painter and graphic artist.

Lund was born in

Norwegian Naval Academy.[1]

He moved to Kristiania, where he met painting student Per Deberitz, who was a student of Hans Gude and who probably turned Lund's interest to this profession. He was a pupil of Harriet Backer (1899), debuted the same year, and studied further with Johan Nordhagen (1903). Lund had his first exhibit in 1899 and his first Autumn Exhibit in 1901. He lived in Paris (1905, 1920–21) and exhibited in Berlin (1908). He lived in Copenhagen from 1904 to 1909 and broke through here. He held several notable exhibitions, including "The Six" in Berlin and Copenhagen in 1911.

His works can be found in the

National Theatre, among others.[2]

Personal life

His sister was the composer and pianist Signe Lund (1868–1950). In 1900, he married Gunbjør Olsen (1880–1965), and they were the parents of the sculptor Knut Henrik Lund (1909–1991). He was the father-in-law of the art historian Johan Henrik Langaard (1899–1988). He died on 23 December 1935 in Oslo.[3][4][5]
