"Porträtt föreställande Elisabet Sandelhielm, f. Polhem" is a distinguished oil painting by the renowned Swedish Baroque artist David von Krafft. This portrait is a significant representation of the Swedish aristocracy during the early 18th century, capturing the elegance and stature of its subject, Elisabet Sandelhielm, née Polhem. Elisabet was the daughter of Christopher Polhem, a prominent Swedish scientist and inventor known for his contributions to mechanics and engineering, often referred to as the "father of Swedish technology."

David von Krafft, born in 1655 in Hamburg, Germany, was a court painter to the Swedish royal family and a pivotal figure in Swedish art history. He was a nephew and pupil of the famous German-Swedish painter David Klöcker Ehrenstrahl, and he succeeded his uncle as the principal court painter. Krafft's works are celebrated for their meticulous attention to detail, rich color palette, and the ability to convey the personality and status of his subjects.

The portrait of Elisabet Sandelhielm exemplifies Krafft's mastery in portraiture, showcasing his skill in rendering luxurious fabrics, intricate lacework, and the delicate features of the sitter. The painting not only serves as a visual document of Elisabet's appearance but also reflects the cultural and social milieu of the Swedish nobility during the period. The composition, lighting, and use of color in the portrait are characteristic of the Baroque style, emphasizing realism and depth.

This artwork is part of a broader collection of portraits by Krafft that provide valuable insights into the fashion, aesthetics, and societal norms of 18th-century Sweden. It remains an important piece for both art historians and enthusiasts, offering a glimpse into the life and times of one of Sweden's notable historical figures through the lens of one of its most talented artists.
