Swedish, 1860–1946
Ferdinand Boberg (1860–1946) was a Swedish architect born in Falun. He designed several notable buildings in Stockholm, including an electrical plant at Björns Trädgård inspired by Middle Eastern architecture, which was later converted into the Stockholm Mosque, as well as the Nordiska Kompaniet department store and Rosenbad, now used by the Swedish government. His 1904 Swedish Pavilion from the St. Louis World's Fair was relocated to Lindsborg, Kansas. After retiring in 1915, Boberg traveled across Sweden with his wife Anna, creating over 3,000 sketches and publishing around 1,000 drawings in the book "Svenska bilder" ("Swedish Images").
