From the book Ett Hem (At home)
Larsson a Stockholm born Swedish painter and interior designer is a representative of the Arts and Crafts Movement. His many paintings include oils, watercolours, and frescoes. He considered his finest work to be his late Midvinterblot (Midwinter Sacrifice), a large painting now displayed inside the Swedish National Museum of Fine Arts.
In 1882 he met and married Karin Bergöö. They had eight children. In 1888 the young family was given a small house, named Little Hyttnäs, in Sundborn by Karin's father Adolf. Carl and Karin decorated and furnished this house according to their particular artistic taste and also for the needs of the growing family. Ett hem was published in 1899 and is full of these bright and very Scandinavian interiors. Above the door it says God's peace, a common Scandinavian term used at any time of the year as in closing a letter.
