comic art by Albert Engström
Albert Engström spent a large part of his childhood in Hult, where his father was station master. He was one of Carl Larsson's pupils at Valand's Art School. He quickly developed into an extraordinarily skillful and productive artist. He is perhaps best known in Sweden for his satirical cartoons, published in the magazine Strix.
