A striking painting of Erik af Sillén. Erik af Sillén (1895–1977) was a Swedish nobleman and military officer who held various distinguished positions throughout his career. He served in the Swedish Armed Forces and held the rank of major general. Erik af Sillén was known not only for his military career but also for his involvement in various social and cultural activities. He held a prominent position in Swedish society during the early to mid-20th century, making him a notable figure of his time.
The portrait painted by Martha Ribbing in 1939, depicting him in a striking blue uniform, likely reflects his status and influence within Swedish society during that era.
