Artist: Carl Stefan Bennet (1800–1878)
Swedish painter
Title: Interior of the Painter's Home in Stockholm
Object type: Painting
Description: This painting shows a room in the artist’s home at the Arvfurstens Palats at Gustav Adolfs torg in Stockholm. Bennet moved around the building repeatedly over the years. The apartment is filled with a fascinating mixture of furniture and art from different eras. Several of the works adorning the walls are by the artist himself. They appear like private mementoes, but also contribute – both in the painting and in the actual home – to stressing his artist role.
