It has three main collections: one consisting of over 100 paintings from adherents of the Matisse school, donated by Einar Lunde in the 1920. In 1958, the museum received a large collection of Oscar Johannesen's collection of paintings from the 19th century.[1] In 2008, Jon Dobloug donated 159 paintings from the 1980s and 1990s.
