"The Fanatics" (Norwegian: "Haugianerne") is an 1848 painting by the Norwegian artist Adolph Tidemand, who is known for his depictions of Norwegian rural life and history. The painting is one of Tidemand's most recognized works and is considered a masterpiece of Norwegian national romanticism. It portrays a group of Haugianere, followers of the religious movement led by lay preacher Hans Nielsen Hauge in the early 19th century in Norway.

The scene captures a moment of religious fervor and communal devotion, as the Haugianere are depicted in a simple interior, engrossed in spiritual discussion or prayer. The figures are rendered with a high degree of realism, which was characteristic of Tidemand's style, and the painting's composition reflects a meticulous attention to detail and a strong sense of narrative.

Adolph Tidemand (1814–1876) was a central figure in Norwegian art during the 19th century, and his works often focused on the lives of peasants and rural communities, aiming to capture the spirit and traditions of the Norwegian people. "The Fanatics" is emblematic of this focus, offering insight into the religious life of the time and contributing to the construction of a national identity through visual art.

The painting is notable for its historical and cultural significance, as it documents an important religious movement that had a substantial impact on Norwegian society. It also exemplifies the broader European trend of national romanticism, where artists sought to define and express the unique character of their respective nations through art.

"The Fanatics" is housed in the National Gallery in Oslo, Norway, where it continues to be an important work for both art historians and the general public, reflecting the intersection of art, religion, and national identity in 19th-century Norway.
