Adolph Tidemand's painting Sittende prest (translated as Seated Priest) is a work by the renowned Norwegian artist Adolph Tidemand (1814–1876), who is widely celebrated for his contributions to Norwegian Romanticism and his depictions of rural life, traditions, and culture in 19th-century Norway. Tidemand's works often reflect a deep interest in the everyday lives of Norwegian people, as well as the country's landscapes and cultural heritage.

The painting portrays a seated priest, a figure that holds significant cultural and social importance in Norwegian society, particularly during the 19th century. Priests were often seen as central figures in rural communities, serving not only as religious leaders but also as educators and moral guides. Tidemand's choice to depict a priest aligns with his broader artistic focus on capturing the essence of Norwegian identity and the roles of individuals within traditional society.

While specific details about the creation date or the exact context of Sittende prest are not widely documented, the painting is consistent with Tidemand's style, which often combines realism with a Romantic sensibility. His works are characterized by meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the depiction of clothing, facial expressions, and the surrounding environment, which help to convey the personality and status of his subjects.

Adolph Tidemand is best known for his collaboration with Hans Gude on the iconic painting Brudeferden i Hardanger (The Bridal Procession in Hardanger), as well as for his solo works that explore themes of Norwegian folklore, religion, and rural life. His art played a significant role in shaping the national identity of Norway during a period when the country was seeking to assert its cultural independence.

Seated Priest is one of many examples of Tidemand's ability to capture the dignity and humanity of his subjects. The painting reflects his interest in the interplay between individual character and broader cultural themes, a hallmark of his artistic legacy.

Further details about the painting, such as its current location or provenance, are not readily available in public records. However, Tidemand's works are held in high regard and can be found in major collections, including the National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design in Oslo, Norway.
