Gunnar Brynolf Wennerberg

Gunnar Brynolf Wennerberg (16 August 1823, Lidköping - 3 October 1894, Göteborg) was a Swedish painter of the Düsseldorf School and a major landowner.

He and some friends published an album called "Bilder ur Svenska Folklifvet" (Pictures from Swedish Folklife), which had some mild success.

He was home for only short time when the money earned from painting portraits of a local nobleman and his family enabled him to make another trip overseas.

It became an important meeting point for local artists, including Frederik Collett and Arvid Mauritz Lindström.

Between 1860 and 1890, he participated in several exhibitions at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts, but his works (mostly pictures of horses) received little serious attention.
