Sigvard Hansen (May 23, 1859 - 1938) was a Danish landscape painter. He was apprenticed at Aluminia (Porcelain factory) and studied at the Academy at the same time, but never graduated.

His specialty was Danish and foreign winter landscapes which he executed with great skill and sold in copious amounts. Here I have selected an atypical canvas, which I think shows off his technical skill with figures, scenery and a typical Danish grey sky:
