Mrs. Granberg is a 1903 ink by Anders Zorn, held at National Gallery of Art.
The image presents a portrait of a woman, rendered in black and white. Her dark hair is styled in an updo, and she wears a dark coat with a fur collar. The background is a light beige color. In the bottom-left corner, the artist's signature and the year "1903" are visible. The overall style of the portrait suggests a focus on capturing the subject's likeness and expression. This etching is reminiscent of the work of Anders Zorn, who was known for his portraits and use of etching techniques.
Anders Leonard Zorn was born in February 1860 in Mora, Dalarna, the illegitimate son of a Bavarian brewer and a Swedish farmer's daughter; his mother died shortly after his birth, and his grandparents raised him.
