Gerda Höglund (12 March 1878 – 25 March 1973) was a Swedish painter. After attending Kerstin Cardon's school in Stockholm, she moved to Paris where she continued her education at the Académie Julian. In addition to painting landscapes, still lifes, and portraits, she was one of the few 20th-century women who decorated Swedish churches. She began specializing in sacred art after she had been invited to paint an altarpiece for the Swedish church in Johannesburg. Her work can be seen today in 20 churches as well as in the Stockholm City Hall and in the Royal Swedish Academy of Music.
