Photo collection

The museum's photo collection is now part of Musik- och teaterbiblioteket but will remain at Gäddviken. If you have any questions regarding the photo collection please contact archivist Marianne Seid.

The collection contains some 500 000 photos from the late 19th century to present day.  Here you can find portraits and role portraits of actors, singers, dancers and other performers. The collection of photos from stage performances covers most Swedish theatres. We also have collections from various photographers, amongst them the Beata Bergström collection of photos mainly from Dramaten (the Royal Dramatic Theatre) and the Helleday collection (more information about this collection can be found in the submenu).
