Ulf. Nude Boy among Birches collection.nationalmuseum.se/eMuseu…

As the artist’s son Ulf turns around among the birch trunks, his body assumes a pose that resembles the slender, supple trees. Nordic nature was a common theme in 1890s art, but Carl Larsson’s daylight scenes with white birches stood out from the habitual twilight views (especially with pines against sunsets). The setting is Bullerholmen, an island in the Sundborn river, where the Larsson family used to go by rowing boat to bathe. Ulf, who is eleven in this painting, died in 1905 after a failed appendectomy.

In the Kitchen Garden collection.nationalmuseum.se/eMuseu…

The vegetable patch is bathed in sunlight. Carl Larsson’s portrayal of light is so realistic that we almost share the girl’s experience of being blinded by it. There is not much shade in this picture. That is because the sun is high in the sky, but the artist has probably also chosen to leave it out to maximize the effect of strong sunlight. The painting was made in the international artist colony in Grez-sur-Loing south of Paris, where Larsson developed his watercolour technique in 1883–1884, in lighting conditions that were different from Sweden.

Ludvig Looström, 1848-1941 collection.nationalmuseum.se/eMuseu…

Looström was the director of the Nationalmuseum in 1900–1915. During that period, Larsson created two monumental paintings for the Museum’s stairwell. When Gustav Vasa’s Entry into Stockholm was being painted (completed in 1908), Looström appeared as one of the artist’s most avid admirers. When he supported the rejection of Midwinter Sacrifice a few years later, it led to the end of their friendship. This portrait was made while they were still on a friendly footing. Looström is shown sitting in his office at the Museum, dressed in his famous round smoking cap.

The Vine collection.nationalmuseum.se/eMuseu…

The Vine can be interpreted as a light-hearted allegory of love – the woman harvests the grapes for the wine that intoxicates the man. With his great technical virtuosity, Carl Larsson was excellently equipped to succeed in the Neo-Rococo genre, which relied to a great extent on the ability to paint with illusory brilliance. The Vine was bought by Herman Friedländer when it was shown at the Opponent Exhibition Vid Seinens strand (On the Seine River Bank) in Stockholm in 1885. Friedländer later lent it to the World’s Fair in Paris in 1889.

Study for Modern Art collection.nationalmuseum.se/eMuseu…

For their private art gallery, the Fürstenbergs commissioned a mural by Carl Larsson. The artist accepted the assignment on the condition that he could carry it out in France, and that the Fürstenbergs paid for his stay there. The result was the famous Fürstenberg triptych, which was shown at the World Fair in Paris in 1889, where it was awarded a 1st class medal. Larsson made a large number of studies for the triptych. Many of these were given to friends; this one he gave to the sculptor Christian Eriksson.

"Murre". Portrait of Casimir Laurin collection.nationalmuseum.se/eMuseu…

Casimir Laurin, nicknamed Murre, was the son of Carl Larsson’s friends and patrons Carl G. and Gunilla Laurin. Murre is three in this painting. He eventually became an officer, but also published his father’s letters and notes on Stockholm’s cultural scene around 1900. The reds and greens are unusually well-preserved in this portrait. In many of Carl Larsson’s watercolours the original hues have faded through exposure to light.

When the Children have Gone to Bed. From A Home (26 watercolours) collection.nationalmuseum.se/eMuseu…

Carl and Karin Larsson combined new design with old traditions. Practicality dictated their interior design, but it was equally important that furniture and objects form an attractive harmony. This ideal was also propagated by others, including Ellen Key, who advocated homes that were in a new and light style, in her essay “Skönhet för alla” (Beauty for All) in 1899. The Larssons moved to Lilla Hyttnäs, a house in Sundborn, in the summer of 1889. Here, Carl and Karin together created the interiors that made their home famous. Karin designed the furniture and textiles, which she embroidered and wove. A studio was fitted up in one of the hallways. It features many eye-catching details, including the funny man crowning a column. When a larger studio extension was added, this room became a workshop for the whole family. The interiors of the Larsson home were characterised by rural simplicity. Nevertheless, every detail was carefully designed, with influences from England, Scotland and Japan. The kitchen, which was first and foremost a place for household chores, did not display the same modern interior style and comfort as the rest of the house.
