Ambrosia Tønnesen (28 January 1859 – 21 January 1948) was a Norwegian sculptor. She is regarded as the first professional female sculptor in Norway,[1] and is best known for her many portraits, including statues , busts , and reliefs .

Tønnesen was born in Ålesund , a daughter of steamshipmaster Abraham Tønnesen (1818–1868) and Thomine Jonasen.[2] She worked as a schoolteacher in Bergen for some years, while also studying drawing, modeling, and painting. In 1885 she travelled to Copenhagen where she studied with painter Bertha Wegmann and sculptor Stephan Sinding . She then studied with sculptor Albert Wolff in Berlin , and further with René de Saint-Marceaux in Paris .[1] Ambrosia met her partner, Mary Banks, in 1888 and the two women lived together for 30 years in Paris, and Bergen, Norway.[3]
