Julius Kronberg
The artist Julius Kronberg (1850-1921) was born in Karlskrona. At the age of fourteen he was accepted at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts and continued his studies in Munich and Rome. His main source of inspiration was the 18th-century painter Gianbattista Tiepolo. After returning to Sweden he received a number of public and private commissions, including at Stockholm Castle and Hallwyl Palace. He had a studio built at the Lilla Skuggan estate on Norra Djurgården in Stockholm, which was then owned by Kronberg's mother-in-law Carin Scholander. When Kronberg died in 1921, the studio and all its equipment were purchased by Countess Wilhelmina von Hallwyl, who donated it to Skansen, where it was moved the following year.

Art is best experienced live. Openings are arranged at the gallery approximately once a month, all year round. Here you can experience a wide selection that alternates between contemporary art, where the artist himself is often present, and classic or modern collections.
