Hedevig Thorine Christine Erichsen Lund (June 11, 1824 – March 16, 1888) was a Norwegian painter.
Lund was born in Kristiansand, the daughter of Ole Wilhelm Erichsen (1793–1860) and Abel Marie née Isaachsen (1803–1883).[1] Her father was a member of the Council of State and minister of the navy, and he owned the Semb farm in Borre in Vestfold county, Norway.[2]
Lund is particularly known for her portraits,[3] and she created many commissioned works for Eidsvollsbygningen gallery depicting members of the National Assembly.[1] She also painted landscapes, including Landskapsstudie Borrevannet (Lake Borre Landscape Study, 1878), which is displayed in the National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design.[1] [4]
She married the officer, writer, and painter Bernt Lund in 1847.[5] Together they painted the altarpiece Jesus i Getsemane (Jesus in Gethsemane), which is displayed today in Stokken Church.[5]
She died in Christiania (now Oslo).[1]
