Bernt Tunold (February 25, 1877 – January 23, 1946)[1][2] was a Norwegian painter. Influenced by his early years in a rural environment on the small island of Selja on the west coast of Norway, his paintings, initially inspired by the style of his countryman Nikolai Astrup,[3] are known for their depictions of the dramatic and contrast-filled nature and landscape of western Norway.[4]
