Fisherwoman on the coast

Otto Ludvig Sinding (December 16, 1842 – November 23, 1909) was a Norwegian painter and the older brother of the sculptor Stephan Sinding and the composer Christian Sinding.

Otto Sinding went to art school in Christiania and continued his studies under Hans Gude at the Baden School of Art in Karlsruhe, Germany.[1] It was there that Sinding came into contact with Wilhelm Ludwig Friedrich Riefstahl and Karl Theodor von Piloty.

Sinding drew on motives from Norwegian nature, folk life and history. Some of his best known works are landscape paintings from Lofoten.
