Nels Hagerup was born in Christiania, Norway in 1864. He studied at the Christiania Art School, the Royal Academy in Berlin, and in Copenhagen with Carl Locher. After sailing to the West Coast as a merchant seaman in 1882 he settled in Portland, Oregon. There he became a drawing instructor at the Bishop Scott Academy (now called Hill Academy) and was a founder of the Portland Art Association. In 1892 he moved to San Francisco, where he remained the rest of his life. He worked there as a stevedore on the waterfront and later established a home and studio in the Sunset District. Hagerup painted nearly six thousand oils of sand dunes, ships and marine scenes. A 16 x 18 foot mural in the Assembly Room of the San Francisco Merchants’ Exchange Building is one of his lasting legacies. Due to severe alcoholism some of his paintings are uneven in quality; however, in his more lucid moments, he was a master of atmospheric seascapes. He died of a heart attack in his studio in March 1922.
