Query re: Did you know that Nell Walden was the first abstract artist in Swedish history?

I wonder whether she was the first: it could be argued that Hilda af Klint produced abstracts as early as 1906, although her work was hidden for many years. But maybe "first in Swedish history" excludes someone whose abstract weren't exhibited very much. It would be interesting to hear from some expert on 20th century Swedish art. --Weka511 (talk) 00:19, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
