Erik Dahlbergh; engraved by Willem Swidde. From Suecia Antiqua et Hodierna. Published in Stockholm, c. 1690–1710.

Dahlbergh's ambitious project aimed to document Sweden's historical and contemporary grandeur, providing invaluable visual records of its cities, palaces and churches during the 'Age of Greatness'. The Hedvig Eleonora Church, named after Queen Hedvig Eleonora of Holstein-Gottorp, was a key Baroque commission of late seventeenth-century Stockholm.
