Nikolai Astrup (August 30, 1880 - 1928) was a Norwegian painter who primarily depicted the landscapes of his birthplace - the West Country tracts - often his own elaborate gardens.
He trained at the Norwegian Royal Academy in Oslo (then Kristiania), but did not enjoy the school. Instead he took private lessons in Norway and later with Christian Krohg at the Académie Colarossi in Paris.
Astrup had lung issues his whole life - asthma, tuberculosis, and finally pneumonia which killed him after a reckless journey by open car.
