Olaf Jordan

Olaf Jordan was a German and Swedish painter of the first half of the twentieth century. He is known as a portrait painter.

Jordan was attached as a war artist to the collaborationist SS Cossack Cavalry during World War II and created many portraits of Cossacks. Some of his work was confiscated by the Americans, who judged the drawings to be apologia for the Nazi regime. Jordan himself remained in Soviet captivity until 1947, after which he moved to Sweden, where he painted mostly portraits of children. Before the war, he worked on a series of depictions of Yugoslav folk types.
