Carl Larsson


Carl Larsson (May 28, 1853 – January 22, 1919) was a Swedish painter and interior designer, representative of the Arts and Crafts Movement. His many paintings include oils, watercolors, and frescoes. He considered his finest work to be Midvinterblot (Midwinter Sacrifice), a large wall mural now displayed inside the Swedish National Museum of Fine Arts. This interesting card with a self-portrait by the famous Carl Larsson, with his daughter Brita was painted in 1895. My friend Ella sent it to me.
