EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century portrait depicts Johan III, also known as John III of Sweden, ruler of the House of Vasa from 1568 until his death in 1592. Born in the 16th century, Johan III is renowned for his significant contributions to Swedish history, including the introduction of Lutheranism as the state religion and the establishment of the Swedish Empire. The painting, created by Ulrika Fredrika Pasch in the Rococo era, showcases Johan III in regal attire, donning a gilded hat adorned with a golden crown, a red velvet cloak, and a white shirt with lace cuffs. The king's ginger beard, a striking contrast to his red hair, adds to the intrigue of the portrait. The artist, Ulrika Fredrika Pasch, masterfully employs the use of oil on panel to create a lifelike and detailed representation of Johan III. The portrait, now housed in the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, is a testament to the rich heritage and artistic prowess of the 18th century. The gilt frame, with its ornate decoration, further enhances the grandeur of the painting, making it a true gem of historic art. Johan III's legacy continues to be celebrated in Sweden and beyond, and this portrait serves as a lasting reminder of his significant impact on Swedish history and culture.
