Ida Charlotte Clementine Wedel-Jarlsberg (1855-1929) was a Norwegian courtier, painter, temperance activist, pacifist and feminist. She was a lady-in-waiting (hovfröken) of queen Sophia of Sweden.
She was the daughter of the Norwegian nobleman and landowner count Peder Anker Wedel Jarlsberg (1809–1893) and Hedevig Annette Betzy Sigismunda Anker (1819–1879). She studied painting under Eilif Peterssen.
She was appointed as maid of honour to queen Sophia of Sweden-Norway in 1878. She is noted to have been a favorite of the queen among the ladies-in-waiting, along with Märta Eketrä and Ebba von Rosen.[1] She lost her position as lady-in-waiting in 1885, because she refused to attend a dinner with prime minister Johan Sverdrup as the representative of the queen.
In 1892, she was elected chairman of the temperance- and pacifist society Norske Kvinders Totalavholdsselskap – Det Hvite Bånd. In 1894, she founded the women's association Unge Kvinners Kristelige Samfund with Birgitte Esmark.
