"Emanuel Swedenborg" by Per (the elder) Krafft is a notable portrait painting that captures the likeness of the renowned Swedish scientist, philosopher, theologian, and mystic Emanuel Swedenborg. Painted by Per Krafft the Elder, a distinguished Swedish portrait artist of the 18th century, this work is an exemplary representation of Swedenborg's intellectual and spiritual gravitas. Krafft, born in 1724 and active until his death in 1793, was known for his ability to convey the character and essence of his subjects through his meticulous and expressive style.

The portrait of Swedenborg is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical value. Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772) was a polymath whose contributions spanned various fields, including engineering, anatomy, and theology. He is perhaps best known for his later works in which he detailed his spiritual experiences and visions, laying the foundation for the religious movement known as Swedenborgianism or the New Church.

Krafft's painting is believed to have been created during the latter part of Swedenborg's life, capturing him in his mature years. The portrait typically depicts Swedenborg with a serene and contemplative expression, reflecting his deep engagement with both scientific inquiry and spiritual exploration. The artist's use of light and shadow, along with his attention to detail in rendering Swedenborg's features and attire, underscores the subject's prominence and intellectual depth.

This portrait is housed in the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, where it continues to be a subject of interest for both art historians and those studying Swedenborg's extensive legacy. The painting not only serves as a visual documentation of one of Sweden's most influential figures but also as a testament to Per Krafft the Elder's skill in portraiture, capturing the essence of his subjects with remarkable clarity and insight.
