Nils Dardel

Swedish, 1888–1943

After studying at the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts in Stockholm from 1908 to 1910, Nils Dardel created paintings focused on people, often in portraits or group scenes. Working mainly in France and Sweden, he was associated with Post-Impressionism, experimenting with pointillism and bold colors, and briefly explored cubist cityscapes. Some of his best-known works included John Blund, Svarta Diana, Crime Passionnel, and The Dying Dandy. Born into the Swedish von Dardel family in 1888, he became a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts in 1934 and died in 1943.
