Edvarda Lie

Edvarda Klaudine Lie (April 3, 1910 – June 8, 1983) was a Norwegian painter, drawer, and illustrator.

She created illustrations for many newspapers and magazines, including A-magasinet, and she illustrated book covers—for example, a 1946 edition of Ali Baba og de førti røvere (Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves).

From 1936 to 1947, Lie taught fashion illustration at the Norwegian National Academy of Craft and Art Industry.

Her illustrations were often praised for their assertive drawing, light, bright colors, and period decorative style.

Her later floral decorations were based on the skirts of traditional women's dress in Lofoten.
