Nils Forsberg (17 December 1842 – 8 November 1934) was a Swedish painter.
Early life
Forsberg was born in a small village called Risberga, in the province of Scania. After a brief period of training in Göteborg, he moved to Paris in 1867, where he attended Léon Bonnat's atelier. In 1889 he received the gold medal at the Salon for his painting The Death of a Hero, now hosted at the Nationalmuseum of Stockholm. The subject of the painting alluded to the Franco-Prussian War, in which Forsberg took part as soldier and nurse in the French Army. In 1902 he was back in Sweden, where he died in 1934.
