DAHL, MICHAEL (1656-1743)

This article appears in Volume V07, Page 731 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CRE-DAH
DAHL, MICHAEL (1656-1743) , Swedish portrait painter, was
born at Stockholm. He received his. first professional educationfrom Ernst Klocke, who had a respectable position in that northern town, which, however,
Dahl
  left in his twenty-second year. His first destination was England, where he did not
long
  remain, but crossed over to Paris, and made his way at last to Rome, there taking up his abode for a considerable time,
painting
  the portraits of Queen Christina and other celebrities. In 1688 he returned to England, and became for some years a dangerous rival to Kneller. He died in London. His portraits still exist in many houses, but his name is not always preserved with them. Nagler (Kiinstler-
Lexicon
 ) says those at Hampton
Court
  and at Petworth contest the palm with those of the better known and vastly more employed painter.
