Fritz Ludvig von Dardel (24 March 1817 – 27 May 1901)[1] was aSwedish diarist, illustrator and early comics artist.[2] He was a courtier, and is known for his diary and illustrations depicting the life of the Swedish court in the mid-19th century.
Fritz von Dardel was born inNeuchâtel to the Swiss noble Georges-Alexandre von Dardel, who was inducted into the Swedish nobility in 1810, and the Swedish noble Hedvig Sofia Charlotta Amalia Lewenhaupt, and married the Swedish noble Augusta Silfverschiöld. He becameadjutant to the Crown Prince, later KingCharles XV of Sweden, in 1850.
He was a personal friend of Charles XV aside from having several court offices, and both professionally and privately he often attended court during the reign of Charles, and his published diary is a valuable description of the Swedish court and its personages in the mid-19th century.[3]
von Dardel was military attaché in Paris from 1852 to 1862 and becamechamberlain of Charles XV's cabinet in 1864. He was also chairman of theNationalmuseum's board from 1867 to 1892.
At several art exhibitions in Europe (1867, 1871, 1873 and 1878) as well as in Philadelphia (1876), von Dardel was the juryman, and he himself had studied studies at Léon Cogniets and E. Lami's studios in Paris.
Fritz von Dardel is known for his drawings and diary depicting the life at the contemporary Swedish royal court, especially during the reign of Charles XV.[4]
Many of von Dardel's caricatures were made in series in order to tell a (comic) story together with short accompanying texts. They were early examples of cartoon series, probably inspired by his Swiss compatriotRodolphe Töpffer. His works are represented in theStockholm City Museum, Kalmar Art Museum, and Nationalmuseum.
