Bridal Procession on the Hardangerfjord is an 1848 painting by Hans Gude and Adolph Tidemand, considered to be a prime example of Norwegian romantic nationalism. Gude painted the Norwegian landscape and Tidemand the bridal party. In the foreground boat, the groom is depicted tipping his hat, and the bride wears a bridal crown. The boat crew is dressed in typical bunad costumes, and other boats with guests can be seen in the distance. The painting is in the collection of the National Gallery in Oslo.

Painting credit: Hans Gude and Adolph Tidemand
