Huitfeldt Forlag

Huitfeldt Forlag (also known as C. Huitfeldt Forlag AS) is a Norwegian publishing house established in 1970 by Claus Huitfeldt. The company initially focused on books about culture and art, with its first publication being a reissue of Carl Huitfeldt's 1932 work "Norge i andres øyne" (Norway in Others' Eyes). Its most renowned series was "Vi ser på kunsthåndverk i Norge" (We Look at Arts and Crafts in Norway), edited by conservator Johanne Huitfeldt, which ran for about 20 years and comprised 40 volumes. In 1999, the parent company sold the publishing house to the Schibsted group, and C. Huitfeldt Forlag was integrated into it. In autumn 2010, the son of Carl Huitfeldt revived the publishing house on a small scale, with the ultimate goal of continuing the tradition of publishing quality books with a main emphasis on history. The company remains a private entity based in Norway.
