EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Aasta Hansteen, a prominent figure in Norwegian history. Painted by Marie Hauge, this oil on canvas portrait captures the essence of Hansteen's character and achievements. Aasta Hansteen was not only an accomplished painter but also a writer and early feminist who played a significant role in advocating for women's rights during the 19th century. In this half-length seated pose, she exudes both dignity and relaxation, embodying the strength and determination that defined her life.
