I needed a birthday gift for Ramon, an architect and husband of one of my closest friends. I love books by Editorial Taschen and that day they had several new ones. There was one that caught my attention by the beauty of its cover: Two girls standing in what looked like my Grandmother's kitchen so long ago. The dominant color was this sunshine yellow that I thought so beautiful! I was fascinated by the pictures. The front cover had a name, Carl Larsson. I decided to buy the book for Ramon, thinking he being an architect, he probably heard of the artist. Later he confided he had never heard of Carl and that it was a new source of inspiration for him when designing interiors for his houses. I read that in 1876 Carl won the Royal Medal, the Royal Academy of Art's highest honor, but that spring a fellow student Vilhemina Holmgren, died while giving birth to her and Carl's second child. Devastated, Carl left Sweden for Paris soon after. This post is wonderful! Thank you Peter.Maria O.
