Stetind in Fog (Norwegian: Stetind i tåke) is an oil painting by Peder Balke from 1864. Peder Balke got the inspiration for the painting during his first extended trip in 1832 to seek out North Norwegian nature. The dramatic landscape along the northern Norwegian coast impressed him and he returned to Stetind as a motif on several occasions later in life.
