Carl Curman (1833 - 1913) was a Swedish physician and a prominent balneologist. He began photographing in the 1860s and became a prominent and industrious amateur photographer. He left a collection of about 700 photos - original print copies and glass plate negatives, mainly from the late 19th century. The collection of his photographs is included in The Swedish National Heritage Board's archives.
