Carl Larsson: Woman in the Garden — Postcard

This airy watercolour shows a woman in a sweeping red dress and wide bonnet beside a birch tree in a Swedish country garden, a red farmhouse visible beyond a white fence. The loose, impressionistic quality marks it as one of Carl Larsson's more open-air studies — a moment of light and movement rather than a tight interior scene. The vivid red of her dress against the soft greens gives the composition an almost theatrical quality.

A beautiful postcard for lovers of Scandinavian plein-air painting and the graceful outdoor world of Carl Larsson. Explore more Carl Larsson postcards →
