About the Item
The painting we are offering for sale, executed by Swedish artist Erik Tryggelin on May 3, 1907, presents a striking and atmospheric view of Sankt Matteus Church in Stockholm. It stands as a fine example of Tryggelin’s gift for combining figurative compositions with urban motifs, particularly in his depictions of evening moods and cityscapes. Against a dramatic sky, alive with swirling clouds and birds in flight, the church emerges with a sense of timelessness and stoic beauty, weathering the ever-changing elements.
Erik Tryggelin was not only a painter but also an accomplished draftsman, printmaker, and photographer. His work is characterized above all by city scenes and twilight impressions, often from Stockholm, Visby, and Vadstena.
Sankt Matteus Church, the subject of this painting, is the parish church of Sankt Matteus parish in the Diocese of Stockholm, located in Vasastan. Designed by architect Erik Lallerstedt and erected between 1901–1903 at the intersection of Vanadisvägen and Dalagatan, it originally served as a chapel within Adolf Fredrik’s parish. The building unites elements of Art Nouveau and Neo-Gothic, its tall spire and ornate facades rendered here with remarkable sensitivity by Tryggelin.
Tryggelin’s paintings capture the spirit of Stockholm at the turn of the 20th century—a city poised between tradition and modernity. Works such as this are not only visually compelling but also culturally and historically significant, preserving the essence of Stockholm’s architectural and urban identity. This painting is more than a depiction of place; it is a fragment of the city’s soul, seen through the eyes of an artist devoted to chronicling its shifting narrative.
