Norwegian Painter, 1843-1914 was a Norwegian landscape painter. Kielland was born to an affluent family in Stavanger, the older sister of Alexander Kielland. Kielland's mutual interactions with her brother would be important to shaping her as an artist. Although she received some training in drawing and painting, it was not until she turned thirty that she was allowed to train as a professional artist. In 1873 she traveled to Karlsruhe where she was trained by Hans Gude. As a woman Kielland was forced to take private lessons from Gude instead of joining his landscape painting class. Gude's adherence to realism left a lasting impression on Kielland that was visible in her later works.[  Related Paintings of Kitty Kielland :. | Wenzel Hollar,var fodd jag Prag mannen tillbringade sprak period jag England och Holland | The Aldermen of the City of Paris | Green Summer (mk46) | Portrait of Nathalie Petrovna Golitsyn in a white cap | Foxhounds in a Landscape |
