Portrait of Carl Olderman Cronstedt by Helena Arnell
Helena Arnell-Gezelius (1697 – 1 August 1751[1]) was one of the first Finnish painters in Finland.
She was one of the few female artists known in Scandinavia before the 19th century, along with Swedish Ulrika Pasch and Danish Johanna Marie Fosie.
She was the daughter of a Swedish nobleman Jonas Lauréntii Arnell and Helena Adlerbergref.[2] In 1720 she married Johan (Johannes) Nepos Gezelius – doctor of theology and bishop of Porvoo.[2] They had a son named Johan Gezelius.[3]
After her husband died in 1733,[3] Helena moved to Sauvo.[1]
