Albert Engström's studio

Albert Engström's Studio is an art museum in Grisslehamn consisting of two buildings with different color schemes, one white facing the sea and one red facing the land. The buildings house a collection of original drawings, paintings, and personal objects belonging to the artist.

Engström used this site from the early 20th century as a summer residence and workplace for his artistic work. The place became an important center of his creative activity in the following decades.

The studio shows how Engström shaped his artistic life in this coastal community and what connection existed between his work and the seaside setting. The spaces give a sense of how this artist worked daily and drew inspiration from his surroundings.

The studio sits on a steep cliff with views over the sea, so sturdy footwear and caution when exploring the surroundings are recommended. The site can be accessible in poor weather, but pathways may become slippery or windy.

The white side of the studio served ships on the sea as a navigation landmark and was long an important marker for vessels moving through this region. This practical function made the building into more than just an art location.
