Fredrik Wilhelm Scholander

He settled in Paris during 1841, where for almost two years he was a student of Louis-Hippolyte Lebas (1782–1867) at École des Beaux-Arts.

He was called in 1847 as vice-professor and became a full professor of architecture at the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts in 1848.

He trained many members of the next generation of Swedish architects, among them Helgo Zettervall (1831–1907) and Isak Gustaf Clason (1856–1930).

[3][4] Among his main works are the Stockholm Synagogue, the Katedralskolan school building in Uppsala, the County Museum in Växjö, Stadshotellet in Mariestad, the former KTH Royal Institute of Technology building on Drottninggatan in Stockholm, the Bernadotte royal burial chapel at Riddarholmskyrkan, as well as several interiors at Drottningholm Palace and the Stockholm Palace.

They had seven children; among them musician and composer Sven Scholander (1860–1936) and artist Anna Boberg (1864 –1935).
