Life

Wilhelmine came from an originally Swedish family who worked at the Mecklenburg-Schwerin court in Ludwigslust . Her father Erik / Erich Skoglund († 1827) was the "bed master" at Ludwigslust Palace and married the twin sister of the court painter Johann Heinrich Suhrlandt .

From 1821 she was a student of his son Rudolph Suhrlandt and married him in 1824. Of the couple's children, the painter Carl Suhrlandt (1828–1919) and the Schwerin violinist and painter Pauline Soltau (1833–1902) became known; another daughter, Franziska, drowned in a boat accident on Lake Michigan after emigrating to the USA .

Wilhelmine learned lithography , possibly at Gröger & Aldenrath, and converted several portraits of her husband into lithographs. Her portrait lithograph of the Mayor of Bremen Johann Smidt (1830) became famous .
