Olof Arenius
Sweden
Olof Arenius is a Sweden Rococo painting artist. 10 works are cataloged here, principally at Finnish National Gallery.
Swedish portrait painter from the 1700s, Olof Arenius specialized in formal likenesses that captured the clothes and posture of the era. Flip to his *Valtaneuvos Clas Ekeblad*, a stiff-collared judge in a dark coat, or the softer *Rouva Eva Ekeblad* in a patterned silk gown—both show the same careful brushwork that made him Sweden’s go-to artist for official portraits. Want a closer look at the lace trim on Eva’s sleeve? Tap into her portrait next.
