Galerie Hörhammer-Old and New, 1980.

Elin Danielson-Gambogi was a Finnish-Swedish artist born in Norrmark, Finnland. She studied at the Finnish Art Society's Drawing School in Helsinki, under Carl Eneas Sjöström, Hjalmar Munsterhjelm, in Adolf von Beckers private art school and in Paris as Académie Colarossi, and with Auguste Rodin. Danielson-Gambogi had been taught the art of classic drawing, landscape painting, perspective painting, porcelain painting, and was even for a period active in the porcelain factory Arabia. She was part of the so-called Önningeby colony, whose members consisted of Victor Westerholm, Fredrik Ahlstedt, J.A.G Acke and Nina Ahlstedt. Daniel-Gambogi was controversial, her portraits of women glurred boundaries as they showed every day, lightly dressed women. Her art is derivative of naturalism and national romanticism, and she favours a light colour pallet to depict the Mediterranean in a manner which calls upon impressionistic and academic painting styles.
