Joseph Magnus Stäck

Joseph Magnus Stäck (4 April 1812 – 21 February 1868) was a Swedish landscape painter and art professor.

[5] He held several successful exhibits at the salon of the Swedish Association for Art (Sveriges Allmänna Konstförening [sv]).

During this time, in 1842, he received a scholarship that enabled him to visit Munich, Venice and Rome, where he stayed for three years.

In 1852, he was named a professor at the Royal Academy and was elected Chairman of the Sveriges Allmänna Konstförening.

A trip to Düsseldorf, which was then becoming a major art center, proved fruitless due to a recurrence of his illness that made him bedridden.
