No Margareta Solbreck Möller
No Margareta Solbreck Möller, born 23 February 1918 in Sandarne, Hälsingland, died 15 October 1995 in Råsunda, Solna, Uppland.
Inga-Greta was a Swedish cartoonist, graphic artist, illustrator and advertising artist.

She was the daughter of the manager John Johansson and Lotten Solbreck and from 1943 married Stig-Åke Möller. She studied at Otte Sköld's painting school in 1936-1937 and at Steiner-Prague's painting school in 1939 and during a large number of study trips to, among others, France, England, the Netherlands and Germany. She was awarded the Swedish Craft Association's scholarship in 1940. She was a special student at the School of Art's line for graphics and book art from 1951 to 1952. After her studies she worked at Anders Beckman's advertising studio.

She participated a few times in the National Museum's exhibition Young cartoonists in the 1940s and in the National Museum and Röhsska museum's exhibition Contact with the utility art 1944 and some of the National Museum's exhibitions of the best posters of the year, the Swedish Craft Association's exhibition The Nyttokonstnarna, the SAFT exhibition in Stockholm and ten for one at the Galerie Acté in Stockholm. Internationally, she participated in an American walking exhibition with Swedish posters in 1946, international poster exhibitions in Vienna, Prague, Düsseldorf and Johannesburg. She first worked with powerful abstract composed posters and was awarded several awards at various poster prize competitions but in the late 1940s switched to book and brochure illustrations. Among other things, she illustrated the translation of Christine Weston's Bhimsa in 1949. Solbreck-Möller is represented at the Cleveland University Exhibit in Ohio.

Solbreck-Möller was employed by Anders Beckman and has probably been involved in many of the agency's works, which are signed Beckman's Ateljé. She had an extremely high technical ability to catch, for example, radio pipes from Phlips or the shape of an aircraft wing. Outside of the office, she also worked very freely and participated in poster competitions where she placed high, the times she did not win. She shows humor and emotion in the poster Have a good time , which was a competition entry for Svenska Amerika Linien 1953, where she placed among the nominees
