Bruno Liljefors

In 2025, Gustavianum received an extensive donation of Bruno Liljefors's works from the artist's granddaughter, Catarina Lundegårdh. In 2026, a selection of oil paintings, oil sketches and sculptures from the University's Liljefors collection will be shown in an exhibition that reflects the versatility of his artistic output.

The exhibition is on view from June 13, 2026 to September 19, 2027.

It is an exhibition and donation that Uppsala should be proud of, and one that is also worth traveling here for.”

“Such a generous donation and such a thoughtfully curated exhibition deserve to be widely visited […]”
