Setting the scene


Rather than showing the actual bloody sacrifice scene,
Larsson chose to paint the final preparations.

    Larsson was brought up in extreme poverty in an unstable home. His artistic ability brought him fame, fortune and a stable family life with 8 children !
    His house in Sundborn is still owned by his descendants and they open it to the public every year. Carl Larsson-gården is a must see.
