About This Item
New York: Putnam, 1979. First edition, first printing. Illustrated throughout from watercolour paintings by Carl Larsson. Oblong 4to, publisher’s pictorial boards with colour illustration by Larsson, in the original illustrated dust jacket. [32] pp. A very fine copy of the book, a little age and rubbing to the extremities of the jacket. FIRST EDITION. A Swedish classic, A FAMILY provides an intimate look at the life of Carl Larsson, the man and the artist, and the family who shared it with him. “Many of Carl Larsson’s paintings celebrate nature and the bliss of a bright summer day; others convey emotion through an expression or an attitude. But what brings one back to his paintings again and again is the loving family feeling captures in everyday moments in the home and outdoors on the landscape he loved.”- Publisher
