Description
English: Letter-writing was an everyday chore. Travel, meetings, orders and other practical matters were nearly always arranged in writing. Many letters from around 1900 resemble today's e-mails: short messages or questions and personal greetings. Others were long and are now valuable as sources of information about life and art at the time. Here, Ingrid, who was the daughter of one of Carl and Karin Larsson’s employees, is writing a letter at Karin’s desk in the upper hallway at Lilla Hyttnäs in Sundborn.
Svenska: Att skriva brev hörde till vardagens sysslor. Resor, möten, beställningar och andra praktiska arrangemang ordnades nästan alltid skriftligt. Många brev från omkring 1900 påminner om vår tids e-post: ett kort meddelande eller en fråga och en personlig hälsning. Andra var långa och är idag värdefulla källor till kunskapen om tidens liv och konst. Här är det Ingrid, dottern till en av Carl och Karin Larssons anställda, som skriver brev vid Karins skrivbord i övre hallen på Lilla Hyttnäs i Sundborn.
