Greetings to all the steemites of the world. For the 19th edition of "Art and Writing" I bring you August Hagborg as a guest.

This outstanding Swedish painter was born in Gothenburg on May 26, 1852. When he was 20 years old, he entered the Konstakademi Art Academy in Stockholm, where he received his first training as a plastic artist.

In 1875 he decides to travel to Paris. There he settles and begins to paint his works, many of which were exhibited at the Paris Salon, uninterruptedly from 1876 to 1909.

He became a member of the Society of Fine Arts in 1890.

He was one of the most important figures of naturalism in France.

His favorite themes are genre scenes, with beaches, fishermen and women with trades related to the sea or fishermen's wives as the setting.

He died on April 30, 1921, in Paris, at the age of 73.

Below we will present three of his works so that you can choose the one that most motivates you to write. The first is called: "The wait", the second, "Conversation by the sea" and the last, "Burial in a village in La Manche"
