Carl Larsson Cottage in Snow Poster Fine Art Print
Carl Larsson The Cottage in Snow 1909 Poster
The bright red and green of the cottage and the little evergreen tree will complement your holiday decorating, you need be in no hurry to take it down after New Year's as there is nothing overtly or specifically Christmas in it.
Description:Carl Larsson's beloved home, Lilla Hyttnäs in deep snow. A path worn by many feet leads to the door as if inviting the viewer to come inside this enchanting house for a cup of Glögg by the fire. The greenery of the "flower window" can be glimpsed through the glass, contrasting with the bare branches of the shrub under the arched window.
This is the full bleed (borderless version intended for use as a poster. A fine art print intended for matting and framing is available in my gallery's Carl Larsson Christmas Collection. The white border on the print version makes the mounting and matting process easier if you plan on framing it.
The default setting here is for the "basic" paper option. Do try out the other paper options and choose the one which suits your taste and budget. The papers with UV protection will give you a longer lasting print, one you can hand down in the family, and I would certainly recommend this option if you plan to hang the print in a sunny location. I would not choose the canvas option myself, as it is not in keeping with this print (the original being watercolour on paper, not oil on canvas).
About the original work of art:
Artist: Carl Larsson
Title: The Cottage in Snow
Date: 1909
Medium: Watercolor
About the artist:Carl Larsson, (b Stockholm, 28 May 1853; d Falun, 22 Jan. 1919) was a Swedish painter, illustrator, printmaker, and writer. His work included numerous portraits and book illustrations, as well as several large murals (the best known are those on Sweden's artistic history in the Nationalmuseum, Stockholm, 1896).
Sweden's most beloved artist, he is now remembered mainly for his watercolors of the idyllic life he enjoyed in his now-famous house in the village of Sundborn with his wife Karin and their eight children. In the words of a contemporary critic, "these are altogether charming -- spirited, vivid, original and full of an indescribable freshness and heartiness."
This print was lovingly prepared for print by a professional graphic artist. This high-resolution file will print beautifully even at the larger sizes. I have carefully corrected the "haze build up" (the smoke, grease and dust which eventually dulls the original artwork) in the manner of an art conservationist (but using digital means and state-of-the-art software) while retaining the charming patina of age. I have also carefully removed stains and fly specks here and there and stray marks incurred after it left the artist's hands, but left the artist's original pencil marks and tiny ink dots alone, as they are part of the original charm of the painting.
