Hjorvardur Harvard Arnason (1909 – 1986) was an art historian focusing on modern art. He was born in Winnipeg, Canada to Icelandic immigrants, Sveinbjorn Arnason and Maria Bjarnadottir (Arnason). His most enduring contribution was his survey of modern art, A History of Modern Art, published in 1968. It has remained a standard volume on the modern period, now in its seventh edition.
