How am I only finding out about this man today? 😭 And why is Tumblr sleeping on the homosexual bachelor prince of Sweden who devoted his life to art and bequeathed all his earthly belongings to the nation?
Prince Eugen was born at Drottningholm Palace as the fourth and youngest son of Prince Oscar, Duke of Östergötland. His mother was Sophia of Nassau. The newborn prince was granted the title of Duke of Närke. Upon his father's accession to the thrones of Sweden and Norway as King Oscar II, the Duke of Närke became fourth in line to the throne. Showing early artistic promise, he studied in Paris, and went on to become one of Sweden's most prominent landscape painters. Throughout his life Prince Eugen was a supporter of fellow artists, and also involved in many cultural organisations and committees. A homosexual bachelor, he bequeathed his villa Waldemarsudde at Djurgården in Stockholm, and its collections, to the nation. It is now one of Sweden's most popular museums.
Here is some of his art:

Not gonna lie, i followed you for the ehra content but you're feeding my soul of art historian with all the beautiful art reblogs. This was such a nice thing to discover!
Ahahaha, I'm glad you're enjoying yourself here, anon! 💙
The things you can always be sure to find on my blog are me obsessing over my fandoms and compulsive reblogging of beautiful art! The hyperfixations run deep! 😅

A papercraft commission of Zelda from Breath of the Wild/Age of Calamity, featured here with the Bow of Light! I had enormous fun cutting out both her swirling hair and the swirling shapes of the bow's decoration - extra-detailed shapes like that take a long time, but the end result is very satisfying. ^_^ And, of course, I'm always excited to make Legend of Zelda art!
