Count Johan Georg Otto von Rosen (1843–1923) was a Swedish painter renowned for his academic-style history paintings and portraits. Born in Paris, he relocated to Sweden with his family during the 1848 French Revolution. He studied at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts from 1855 to 1861 and further honed his craft under Hendrik Leys in Antwerp and Karl von Piloty in Munich. Von Rosen's notable works include "Erik XIV and Karin Månsdotter" and "The Lost Son." He served as a professor at the Royal Swedish Academy and was its director during two terms.
