| Olof Södermark Portrait of Signora Vincensa ca. 1825 oil on paper, mounted on canvas Nationalmuseum, Stockholm |
"Olof Södermark was one of many Swedish military officers during the first half of the 19th century who devoted themselves to artistic pursuits. In the mid-1820s he spent some time in Rome, where he painted this portrait of a woman at a café. The portrait is interesting in its total lack of the idealisation that otherwise characterised portraiture at that time."

| Hugo Salmson Portrait of unknown girl before 1894 oil on panel Nationalmuseum, Stockholm |
"Hugo Salmson is an almost forgotten artist today, but in the 19th century he was highly successful, known among other things for his considerable technical ability. This girl in a chair is painted with a skill that bears comparison with the more celebrated names of 19th-century art. Salmson was sometimes criticised for a stiffness in his images, but that is scarcely the case here. The technical precision of the painting combined with the girl's defiant look overshadows the admittedly rather arranged character of the portrait."

| Gustaf Sandberg Five Old Masters (Poussin, Raphael, Rubens, Dürer, Rembrandt) before 1854 oil on canvas Nationalmuseum, Stockholm |
Gustaf Sandberg based his five Old Master portraits on well-known individual self-portraits by each of these famous artists. The image of Raphael, second from left, was based on that master's portrait of the banker Bindo Altoviti, on display in Munich since 1810 and widely believed in the 18th and 19th centuries to represent Raphael himself. Art officials in Munich traded that portrait away in the 1930s, following its discrediting as a likeness of the artist. Since 1943 this discarded masterpiece by Raphael (though not of Raphael) has been on continuous display at the National Gallery in Washington DC, where its subject is correctly identified.
