Corpus Vasorum Antiquorum, Sweden 2 (Stockholm 1983) is the second Swedish fascicule of the international corpus of ancient painted pottery, and the first for the Stockholm collections: the Medelhavsmuseet and the Nationalmuseum. It was written by Mary Blomberg, Madeleine von Heland, Charlotte Thune Malmgren and Charlotte Wikander and published by the Royal Academy of Letters, History and Antiquities (Kungl. Vitterhets Historie och Antikvitets Akademien), with Tullia Linders, Paul Åström and Pär Göran Gierow as the editorial board.

The fascicule holds no Cypriot pottery. It covers the Corinthian vases of the two museums, Corinthian Geometric, Protocorinthian and Corinthian (by Blomberg and von Heland), and the Italian Iron Age and Archaic Etruscan pottery, impasto, red impasto, bucchero, Red-on-White and White-on-Red wares and Etrusco-Corinthian (by Thune Malmgren and Wikander). An introduction and Örjan Wikander's history of the Medelhavsmuseet collection come first. Forty plates follow, with appendices of inventory numbers and of Corinthian painters and groups.
