The Yard and Washhouse

Carl Larsson

The Yard and Washhouse by Carl Larsson

Step into a freezing but magical Swedish winter with Carl Larsson, who painted his own family home, Lilla Hyttnäs, over and over again. Here, a lone child pulls a sled through the snow toward bright red wooden houses, bathed in the glow of a pale winter sun. Larsson was the master of making domestic life look idyllic, essentially creating the blueprint for modern Scandinavian design and 'hygge' culture long before those terms existed.
