Hilma af Klint (Solna, Sweden, October 26, 1862 - Danderyd, Sweden, October 21, 1944) was a Swedish painter recognized as a pioneer of abstract art. She studied at the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts, where she specialized in naturalist painting. However, her interest in esotericism and spiritualism led her to develop an abstract artistic language from 1906, ahead of contemporaries like Wassily Kandinsky and Piet Mondrian.

Among her most notable works are the series "The Ten Largest" (1907), "The Swan" (1915), and "The Paintings for the Temple" (1906-1915). Her work remained unpublished until 1986, as per her wish that it not be exhibited until at least 20 years after her death, considering that her time was not prepared to understand it. Although she received no awards in her lifetime, her legacy has been the subject of major posthumous exhibitions, such as the one organized by the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in 2024.
