Picasso Ceramics
While in Sweden, we watched tv without cable....which mean only four channels. But they were pretty substantial. One night we saw a documentary on the owner (Hans Erik Borjeson) of the Green Hotel in nearby Tallberg. He developed one of Sweden's most successful tour companies and eventually moved out of Sweden. However, he has a fine art collection which can be viewed for free at the hotel most Saturdays at 3 pm. The Hotel was quite charming on Christmas Day...and we lucked out since Borjeson was present and gave a thoughtful little talk before we viewed the collection.
Max Ernst Drawing or Print
Although he began by collecting a convention Picasso (The Dove), I found other pieces more interesting as his taste evolved. He collected both Zorn and Carl Larsson (Swedes) as well as internationally.
Below are three Swedish works I liked by artists whose names I didn't record...the pieces are not identified except in a few copies of makeshift books that circulate.
