This web site is dedicated to honouring the memory of Swedish-American artist and illustrator Gustav Tenggren. I'm entirely responsible for its design and maintenance. I have also written all the text material, except where something else is stated. The content is a brief review of Tenggren's life, and it has no pretensions on being complete, although already these short texts contains facts, not earlier known to the public. If using them, please state the source.
For those who seek more thorough information on Gustaf Tenggren remains to wait for the publishing of the biography that I have written about him, and presently am fine-tuning. The is the result of a long time search in archives, interviews with relatives and friends, and retrieving books and images from auktions and private collectors. Apart from being an assembly of the information on Gustaf known so far, it contains many new and hitherto not common facts about the artist's life and production. My hope is that the reader will look upon it as the standard work on Gustaf Tenggren that has been missing for so long.
I will gladly take preliminary applications of interest for the book; of course they will not be regarded as binding. Unfortunately it is not yet translated, and will appear in Swedish only at beginning. But please, bear with me.
