"Brudeferden i Hardanger" (English: "The Bridal Procession in Hardanger") is a renowned national romantic painting by the Norwegian artist Hans Fredrik Gude, created in collaboration with the painter Adolph Tidemand. Completed in 1848, this masterpiece is a prime example of 19th-century Norwegian art and is often cited as an iconic representation of Norwegian culture and landscape during this period.

The painting depicts a bridal procession in traditional boats, known as "ektefølge," making its way across the Hardangerfjord, a majestic and picturesque fjord in the county of Vestland, Norway. The bridal party is seen surrounded by the stunning natural beauty of the fjord, with steep mountains plunging into the calm waters and a serene sky above, encapsulating the romantic and idyllic vision of rural Norway.

Gude's expertise in landscape painting combined with Tidemand's skill in capturing human figures resulted in a harmonious and vivid artwork. "Brudeferden i Hardanger" is celebrated for its fine detail, from the reflection of the boats in the water to the intricate costumes of the bridal party, which reflect the traditional dress of the Hardanger region.

The painting has held a significant place in Norwegian national identity, symbolizing the country's traditions, folklore, and natural splendor. It has been reproduced and referenced in various cultural contexts and remains an important work in the study of Norwegian art history. "Brudeferden i Hardanger" is not only a testament to the collaborative genius of Gude and Tidemand but also a timeless window into the heart of Norway's cultural heritage.
