We own a painting by and are researching the Swedish artist (Baron) Karl Stefan Bennet (1800-1878), and are unable to find much information beyond the “snapshots” in Benezit, Thieme & Becker, and Champlin. Checked Art Index.  We’d like to find some more info on his life and works. I’m hoping that someone out there might also own a work by him and will have already dug up some more detail.

 

I just sent a note to the National Museum in Stockholm, as several of his works are (or were) in the Drottningholm Palace.

Can anyone out there help?
