Exactly a century ago, Hans Hammarskiöld (1925–2012) was born, one of Sweden's most prominent photographers who worked for six decades and achieved great international success. Just in time for the centenary, the exhibition "Hans Hammarskiöld – A Life of High Lights" opens at Fotografiska Stockholm. The exhibition, which runs from January 31 to October 5, 2025, showcases everything from 1950s London to abstract still lifes, fashion photography, and several of his now-iconic portraits.
