I thought you might be interested in seeing the works of Carl Larsson, a Swedish painter from the Edwardian era. He was best known for painting idyllic pictures of his family in the country with lots of bright colors. I have always loved his paintings and have a bunch of cards, prints, etc. I have a pattern for an AG sized Swedish costume similar to the ones the girls wear in the pictures. A very nice board member said she would make it for Kirsten so stay tuned and enjoy!

I always loved his work to. Actually you an still visit his home in Sweden, wich is preserved exactly as when he and his family lived there. One of his most famous works is called "A Home", and is a book consisiting of paintings of his home and family, they are lovly.

A family friend introduced me to Carl Larsen when I was younger - including "A Home" which I really enjoyed. The illustrations are so detailed! Thanks for suggesting it for Kirsten fans!
