Matsal Dining Room

This week the Persephone Post visits early twentieth-century Sweden. Carl Larsson (1853-1919) is perhaps one of Sweden's best-known artists. His paintings often depict domestic idylls and in his memoirs he writes that these pictures 'became the most immediate and lasting part of [his] life's work.' If you happen to be in the village of Sundborn between May and October you can visit his house; he was also known as an interior designer, thus this lovely matsal (dining room).
