Portrait of Fanny Hjelm

Fanny Hjelm is an artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Finnish National Gallery.

Fanny Hjelm spent her life in Stockholm, turning her home into a workshop where metal, watercolor, and pencil all shared the same table. She was the kind of artist who could draw a portrait in the morning and solder a brooch by afternoon, no big fuss. Drop by the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm and look for her wry, finely lined portrait of Nuoren naisen muotokuva, it’s the kind of work that makes you pause because the subject feels like someone you’d meet on the street.
