History
History
Maison Watteau was founded by Lena Börjeson in 1919, with the goal to sell Nordic artists’ work in Paris, as an atelier and an artists’ social club. It was backed by art dealer, Gösta Olsson; businessperson and director of Tändstickbolaget, Gunnar Cederschiöld; and Swedish ambassador, Johan Ehrensvärd. Académie Scandinave was led by Nordic visual artists in the early years, including Lena Börjeson, Otte Sköld, Henrik Sørensen, Adam Fischer, and Per Krohg. From 1927 until 1935, the school was led by French artists.
