Carl Larsson-gården

Since 1946, Lilla Hyttnäs has been managed by Carl and Karin Larsson's estate, as a historic home and museum.

Simple furniture and clear colors dominate the interior, a departure from contemporary bourgeois ideals of heavy, dark furnishings.

Her bold compositions were executed in vibrant colours... she reinterpreted Japanese motifs... [and] explored folk techniques".

The interior of the cabin contained unique ceiling and wall paintings from 1742 that Carl Larsson wanted to save from destruction.

[7] In 2014, the garden surrounding the house was restored to how it would have originally looked during Carl and Karin Larsson's time.
