Life

Jeanette Holmlund, daughter of the wholesaler Nils Holmlund and his wife Johanna Helena Torsslow, was, along with Amalia Lindegren , Agnes Börjesson and Lea Ahlborn, one of four students who in the middle of the 19th century, when women were generally denied admission to academies, were exceptionally admitted to the Royal Academy of Art in Stockholm . After studying at the academy for a while from 1849, she went to Paris in 1851 . There she met the Swiss genre painter Benjamin Vautier , who became her teacher and whom she followed to Düsseldorf in 1858. In the milieu of Düsseldorf's painters, which included a colony of Scandinavian artists, she met the Norwegian painter Niels Bjørnsen Møller , whom she married in 1860. The couple had two children. In 1861 Jeanette Møller became an associate member of the Royal Academy of Art in Stockholm. In Stockholm she temporarily ran a studio for training art students. She died in Düsseldorf in 1872.

Jeanette's sister Josephina Holmlund (* 1827 in Stockholm; † 1905 ibid) was a landscape painter, lived with her sister in Düsseldorf after her sister's marriage and, under the influence of her husband, followed the conception of Hans Fredrik Gude .

Holmlund-Möller sent landscapes and portraits to the Stockholm Academy exhibitions and exhibitions in Norrköping (1862) and Gävle (1862, 1863) from 1853 to 1868.
