A stubborn, uncompromising man Edstrom managed to produce sculpture qualitatively well above what the average artist of the time could accomplish. He received acclaim from the best of the contemporary critics of Italy, Great Britain, Germany, the Netherlands, France, and Sweden. And yet, gradually he was disregarded and finally ousted from the canon of art. Over the years he came to know a number of the key figures of the period―Giovanni Papini (and some of the Italian Futurists-to-be), Gertrude Stein, who wrote two portraits of him, and her brother Leo, Henri Matisse, Frederik van Eeden, Crown Prince Gustaf Adolf and his wife Margaret, Ellen Key, Ernest Thiel, Harry Chandler, Robert A. Millikan, Gloria Swanson, and Charlie Chaplin of Los Angeles. This book thus presents, from Edstrom’s point of view, the turbulent period of early modernism in Europe and the vibrancy of Southern California culture of the 1920s.
Rolf Lundén is professor emeritus of American literature at Uppsala University, Sweden. He has written extensively on not only American literature but also other aspects of American Studies, such as the American influence in Sweden, literature and film, and business and religion in the United States.
