Popis:	In the early days of Modernism, numerous Swedish artists and intellectuals paid visits to the salons of the Steins in rue de Fleurus and rue Madame in Paris. The Steins did not pay them much attention, however. In contrast, many of the Swedes recorded their impressions of the Steins and their art exhibits in articles and memoirs. These impressions and analyses have so far not been discussed in a comprehensive way. This article analyzes the Swedish response to the Steins and their salons, shedding new light and complementing the reactions of visitors from other nations. It further highlights the significant roles played by, for instance, Carl Palme, Isaac Grünewald, and David Edstrom. Most importantly, the article presents for the first time a long paraphrase of an exposition on modernist art by Leo Stein, recorded in 1909 by Tor Hedberg, the future member of the Swedish Academy.
