Two Framed Architectural Etchings by Olle Hjortzberg (1872-1959)

About the Item

Immerse yourself in the timeless charm of these two exquisite prints by the renowned Swedish artist, Olle Hjortzberg (1872-1959), dating back to 1918 and 1919. The first print captures the idyllic essence of a countryside cottage, while the second portrays the grand entrance of an urban home, meticulously appointed. Each print is elegantly presented in a period-appropriate glazed gilt wood frame with ebonized sides, measuring a refined 17 1/2 by 20 by 3/4 inches. The etching plate sizes measure 7 1/2 by 10 inches, showcasing the artist's meticulous craftsmanship. Both prints are titled, hand-signed, and dated by Olle Hjortzberg in pencil, adding a personal touch to these timeless pieces. Born in Stockholm, Hjortzberg's artistic journey began with studies at the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts. Influenced by the architect and illustrator Agi Lindegren early in his career, Hjortzberg delved into ornamental work. His contributions to Swedish churches' wall art revitalization, along with commissions for murals and stained glass designs, established him as a prominent artist. Beyond these accomplishments, Hjortzberg excelled in various artistic realms, from floral still life paintings and landscapes to architecture and portraits. His versatility extended to commercial illustrations, including the Gustav V Bible of 1925, a poster for the Stockholm Olympic Games of 1912, and commemorative stamps. Own a piece of Swedish art history with these exceptional prints, each embodying Hjortzberg's mastery and versatility.
