Life

Johanna von Schoultz was born in Stockholm, the daughter of the nobleman Nils Fredrik von Schoultz, governor of Vaasa, and Johanna Henrietta Gripenberg. She was a student of Karl Magnus Craelius, and made her debut at a church concert in Stockholm in 1828.

She performed in Milan, Naples and many of the most famous stages of Italy. In 1833, she made her debut at the Italian Opera in Paris opposite Giulia Grisi, where she made a success. However, due to health problems, her active career as a singer was relatively short, only about a decade.

After marrying Felix Brand, a wealthy civil engineer, she returned to Finland in the 1840s and settled in the town of Hämeenlinna, where she continued to work with music as a teacher of singing and piano, and as a chorus leader.

She was inducted to the Royal Swedish Academy of Music in 1831. She died in Helsinki.

gollark: The correct way would be to use IPFS or something, but this is not widely done.
gollark: Or it could just randomly break at some point.
gollark: But that's not remotely decentralized, and the NFTs don't even bother to contain hashes of the image or anything, so it's entirely possible to make your server show different people different things.
gollark: See, storage on-chain is really expensive, so most NFTs just contain URLs for the actual image.
gollark: Oh, that reminds me, NFTs are really stupidly implemented most of the time too.
