He studied in Stockholm and Paris, and worked in Rome from 1767 to 1778, where he attracted attention with his Faun (1769-1770). In 1778 he returned to Stockholm and became a court sculptor and professor at the Academy, producing many sculptures, drawings, and caricatures, including Gustav III (1790-1808).
