Swedish, 1829-1878
Follow

Augusta Amalia Carolina Åkerlöf born December 16, 1829 in Stockholm, died August 1, 1878 in Hedvig Eleonoras parish, Stockholm, was a Swedish painter, draughtswoman and copyist.

She was the daughter of Erik August Åkerlöf and his wife Amalia Sofia Vilhelmina. She made drawings in pencil and chalk and paintings in oil on canvas. Most of her surviving paintings are portraits. Several of her works are copies of other artists' works. Åkerlöf is represented in the Gripsholm Collections by a portrait of John Panzio Toxon, the chamberlain of Charles XV and a portrait of Queen Louise of Denmark. In Västerhejde Church on Gotland, her painting The Carrying of the Cross, donated to the church by Princess Eugenie, hangs on the nave wall. Åkerlöf is also represented at Uppsala University with a portrait of Oskar I, which is a copy of Fredric Westin's painting, and at the National Museum with the oil painting A Carl XV's Drabant and a Smokehouse in Hardanger (copy after Adolph Tidemand).
