A picture book that captures the splendor of this castle during the 1600s. Stunning photographs display both the beauty of the empty castle rooms while also conjuring the former grandeur of these rooms by including examples of furniture and textiles from that period. Though the furniture was often simple in design, the elaborate textiles and decorative arts offset this simplicity to create a perfectly balanced elegance not to be rivaled elsewhere. This book is intended to complete this picture as the refurnishing of the Läckö Castle has begun with this exhibition. The catalog also includes an inventory of the art belonging to Duke Magnus Gabriel De la Gardie from 1681.
