More information
At the end of the 1910s, Einar Jolin took a prominent role in the Swedish art scene. Returning from Paris only a few years earlier, where he had studied under the great master Henri Matisse, he developed into an outstanding colourist with a remarkable sense of line and form. In the first half of the decade, Jolin participated in a number of high-profile and ground-breaking exhibitions, such as the Baltic Exhibition in Malmö in 1914 and the Swedish Expressionists at the renowned avant-garde art gallery Der Sturm in Berlin.
