Thanks to King Gustav III’s cultural interests and passion for architecture, the late 1700’s in Sweden were virtually a Golden Age of Art in Sweden. Though so distant from centers of Neoclassicism, such as Paris or Rome, many masterpieces of Neoclassicism emerged in this small country of the North. This gorgeous book examines these masterpieces, such as the Royal Castle, Gunnebo, Haga, and Rosendal, and includes a comprehensive catalog of furniture types and styles with drawings by architects, artists, and artisans.
