At the very least we ought to add a good picutre or two! Williamborg 12:43, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Say, isn't rosemaling rooted in Germany? Punkmorten 20:03, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

No it isn't... It's all norwegian :D Gumdropster 13:48, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Added a paragraphj about Rosmålning which is verbatim Rosemaling in swedish - undoubtedly they are the same thing and was conceived in the same time period but in different countries.. Gitangurang (talk) 23:12, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

I agree, it is fairly obvious when one compares the Norwegian and Swedish rural decorative painting side by side. I would be surprized if western Finland didn't have something similar, as well as, Denmark, although Denmark is closer to the continental influences of northern Germany. I think someone should start Wikipedia sites for Norwegian acanthus carving and for the Solje jewelry. I would, but I don't know how. Yes, I am the one who added the paragraph connecting rosemaling with acanthus carving, which should be fairly obvious to anyone who has been in a rural Norwegian parish and seen its altar and pulpit.04:52, 14 April 2011 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.52.199.50 (talk)

The title needs to be changed to Rosemaling -- not Rosemåling with an "å". In Norwegian, "måling" means measuring. Don't know how to change page title.

Well if you want to get technical then the region was part of the Danish kingdom at the time (1537-1814) before becoming part of Sweden (1815-1905) and then finally becoming it's own sovereign state. So Rosemaling's origin belongs to simultaneously all three of those Scandic states as well as from another POV in current parlance just Norway and finally in the really broad picture just those three valleys that have seen a few changes in management along the way. Like all good fashion sense the idea spread fast. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.130.102.148 (talk) 00:43, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

Tole painting
These articles seems to overlap, or even contradict each other. --Erik den yngre (talk) 19:15, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Disputed title
The title is spelled rosemåling (Nynorsk) but the rest of the article uses the spelling rosemaling (Bokmål). One spelling should be decided on and used consistently. flod logic (talk) 14:45, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
 * We also have the Swedish form rosmålning, so which one, nynorsk, bokmål or svensk? Although there is a lot of focus on the Norwegian traditions, it was not exclusively Norwegian.--Berig (talk) 14:48, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Why not English, Rose-painting? There are English-language books that either call it that or use that to gloss one or other of the Scandinavian names. Yngvadottir (talk) 10:16, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I move it, as it is the English name, and we don't need to discuss which Scandinavian language should be used.--Berig (talk) 11:45, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I understand that many of Norwegian heritage feel immense pride at this art form and would like to remove the Swedish version altogether, making this a purely Norwegian phenomenon, but Wikipedia does not need two articles on Scandinavian rose painting. It is a bit like in Minnesota, where Norwegians did not go to the same churches as the Swedes, in spite of the fact that their languages were almost perfectly mutually intelligible and they were all Lutherans.--Berig (talk) 11:57, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
