Maria (Maja) Wilhelmina Fröberg was born March 21, 1886 in Västerås. She was a Swedish artist and textile pattern designer.

Fröberg studied at Valands målarskola (Valand's painting school) in Gothenburg in the 1910s and during several study trips to Germany, Belgium, Denmark and Norway. She spent time Paris where she studied at Maison Watteau.

Best known for her landscape paintings in oil, she also worked with linocuts. As a textile graphic designer she produced Gothic-Romantic inspired room decorations with landscape motifs.
