1718--93 Swedish painter and pastellist, active in Germany and France. He trained with Lars Ehrenbill (1697-1747), a draughtsman employed by the Admiralty in Malmö, and in Stockholm under Georg Engelhardt Schräder (1684-1750), a portrait painter working in the tradition of Hyacinthe Rigaud and Nicolas de Largillierre. In 1741 Roslin moved to Göteborg, but the following year he returned to Malmö, where he executed devotional works for the parish church of Hasslöv, Halland, and began establishing himself as a portrait painter.   Related Paintings of Alexander Roslin :. | Portrait of Hedwig Elizabeth Charlotte of Holstein-Gottorp | The Baroness de Neubourg-Cromiere | Jean Francois Marmontel | Count Andrey Kyrillovich Razumovsky | Portrait of Grand Prince Paul Petrovich |
