Sjöstrand first arrived in Finland in the autumn of 1856 where he worked on the statue of Henrik Gabriel Porthan (1739–1804) in Turku. After working in Stockholm in 1861–1862, in 1863 Sjöstrand was offered a position as instructor at the Academy of Fine Arts, Helsinki by Fredrik Cygnaeus (1807–1881). Sjöstrand was a teacher in Finland for a total of 18 years. Among his students was the Finnish sculptor Walter Runeberg (1838–1920). Sjöstrand is considered to have been the founder of Finnish sculpture because of his role as a promoter of Finnish public sculpture in the 1850s and 60s, and his interpretations of Finnish themes.[4]
