Does an artist's birthplace matter? In a recent study by Pew Research on #Nationalidentity they found 52% of Americans and 33% of Europeans consider nationality very important to their #identity . But, should #artists primarily #paint nationalistic subjects? #Swedishpainter #NilsBlommér believed so.  In 1846 he founded a guild of #Swedishartists dedicated to depicting #Norsemythology and #folklore in #painting . #Blommér trained in #Stockholm changing his last name from #Olsson to Blommér after his birthplace. He painted Nordic tales including: #MeadowElves, #WaterSprite and #ÄgirsDaughters and #IdunandBrage . The artist tragically and ironically died at age 36 in #Rome traveling abroad.
