Carl And Karin Larsson Reading With Sculpture And Artwork.

Carl and Karin Larsson reading with sculpture and artwork.

Karin acted as a sounding-board and critic for Carl’s work, in addition to being his primary model. She designed and wove a large amount of the textiles used in the house, embroidered, and designed clothes for herself and the children and furniture. The style in which the house was decorated and furnished to Karin’s designs, depicted in Carl’s paintings, created a new, recognisably Swedish style.
