Carl Larsson - Cosy Corner. From A Home (26 watercolours) - fine art print

Original information about the artwork from the museum (© - by Nationalmuseum Stockholm - Nationalmuseum Stockholm)

English: Carl and Karin Larsson combined new design with old traditions. Practicality dictated their interior design, but it was equally important that furniture and objects form an attractive harmony. This ideal was also propagated by others, including Ellen Key, who advocated homes that were in a new and light style, in her essay “Skönhet för alla” (Beauty for All) in 1899. The Larssons moved to Lilla Hyttnäs, a house in Sundborn, in the summer of 1889. Here, Carl and Karin together created the interiors that made their home famous. Karin designed the furniture and textiles, which she embroidered and wove. A studio was fitted up in one of the hallways. It features many eye-catching details, including the funny man crowning a column. When a larger studio extension was added, this room became a workshop for the whole family. The interiors of the Larsson home were characterised by rural simplicity. Nevertheless, every detail was carefully designed, with influences from England, Scotland and Japan. The kitchen, which was first and foremost a place for household chores, did not display the same modern interior style and comfort as the rest of the house. Hos Carl och Karin Larsson möttes ett nytt formspråk och gammal tradition. De praktiska ändamålen styrde inredningen, men lika viktigt var att möblerna och föremålen samspelade i en harmoni. Dessa idéer förespråkades också till exempel av Ellen Key. Hon pläderade för nya och ljusa hem i sin uppsats ”Skönhet för alla” från 1899. Larssons flyttade till huset Lilla Hyttnäs i Sundborn sommaren 1889. Carl och Karin skulle där tillsammans skapa den inredning som gjorde hemmet berömt. Karin formgav både möbler och textilier som hon broderade och vävde. En av tamburerna inreddes tidigt till ateljé. Där finns rikligt av iögonfallande detaljer, till exempel den lustige figuren på krönet till stolpen. När en större ateljé byggdes blev detta rum en verkstad för hela familjen. Inredningarna i det Larssonska hemmet gav sken av en lantlig enkelhet. Samtidigt var allt noga genomtänkt och influenserna hämtades bland annat från England, Skottland och Japan. Köket som främst var en plats för hushållsarbete och matlagning hade dock inte samma moderna inredningsstil och bekvämlighet som de övriga rummen.
