The collection of Göran Bergengren, subsequently inherited by the current owner.

The sculptor and artist Stig Blomberg was born in Linköping in 1901. He studied at the Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm under notable figures such as Carl Milles. In the late 1920s, Blomberg embarked upon several trips around Europe and America, during which he spent the longest in Paris. In 1951 Blomberg returned to the Royal Institute of Art to teach as a professor. Blomberg is now classified as one of 20th century's most commissioned and prolific sculptors, with many of his bronze sculptures decorating the surfaces of public buildings, plazas and squares. The recurring theme of his work is children and youth, portrayed with joy and humour.
