About
Johan August Malmström was a Swedish painter. As an artist, he was known for his country motifs often featuring children. His most widely recognized work is Grindslanten (1885) featuring a typical scene from 19th-century Sweden. Influenced by the national romanticism of Gothicismus, he also collected motifs from Norse mythology. He made illustrations for publications of both Frithiofs saga and The Tales of Ensign Stål.
