About us
The founder of Rammagerðin was Jóhannes Bjarnason (1909–1978). He began framing paintings around 1940 at Laugavegur 53 and, a year later, moved into the basement of Hótel Hekla, where his brother, Guðlaugur Bjarnason (1908–2000), joined him. Jóhannes was ambitious in the work he took on and worked diligently to build up his company, Rammagerðin, which he opened at Hafnarstræti 17 in 1944. The brothers handled framing for all the major Icelandic artists, such as Jóhannes Kjarval. Rammagerðin has a remarkable history connected to the arts—for example, many Icelanders owned reproductions of Icelandic artworks that had been framed there.
