Gunnlaugur Scheving
Icelandic artist
Gunnlaugur Óskar Scheving (8 June 1904 – 9 September 1972)[1][2] was an Icelandic artist. He was one of Iceland's leading figurative painters and social realist painters of the 20th century.[1][3] His art was part of a 1930s movement which broke with the tradition of landscape painting carried over from the turn of the century. Gunnlaugur's art focussed on working people, especially fishermen at sea and figures in rural settings.[4]
