Swedish Realist Painter, 1853-1919 Swedish painter, illustrator and printmaker.

From 1875, for several decades, he was a prolific book illustrator, his most renowned work in this field being his drawings for Föltskärns beröttelser ('The Barber-surgeon's tales'; pubd 1883-4) by Zacharius Topelius, and the Rococo-inspired watercolours for the Samlade skaldeförsök ('Collected attempts at poetry'; pubd 1884) by the 18th-century Swedish author Anna Maria Lenngren.  Related Paintings of Carl Larsson :. | tre om en bok-kersti och esbjorn samt muff | Harverstion Ice | gratulation-gratulation pa karindagen | i snicknarbode | hilda bergoo |
