After great success abroad as a society portraitist, from 1896 onwards Anders Zorn devoted himself to recording the customs of his homeland. Alongside his naturalistic nudes, landscapes and genre scenes, this display includes items from Zorn’s collection of Swedish folk objects. Find out more from the Kunstmuseum’s website.
