Clock Farmhouse Living Room Plate Skansen Typical Halland Mike Dixon
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the living room of an 18th century Swedish farmstead located in Oktord, Halland. Now housed at Skansen Museum in Stockholm, this artifact offers a glimpse into the traditional lifestyle and aesthetics of rural Sweden during that era. The room exudes a sense of rustic charm with its wooden beams, worn floorboards, and simple yet functional furnishings. The centerpiece of the living room is an exquisite clock that stands proudly on the mantelpiece. Its intricate design and craftsmanship reflect the attention to detail prevalent during this period. Surrounding it are various decorative plates adorning the walls, adding splashes of color to the otherwise earthy tones present throughout. Every element within this space tells a story – from the carefully arranged furniture to the well-worn armchair by the window overlooking picturesque countryside views. It serves as a testament to how Swedes lived their lives centuries ago – embracing simplicity while valuing functionality. Visiting Skansen Museum allows visitors to step back in time and immerse themselves in Swedish history and culture. This particular exhibit provides an authentic experience by recreating a typical 18th century farmhouse interior down to every last detail. Captured by photographer CM Dixon, this photograph preserves not only a historical artifact but also captures our imagination as we envision life within these walls so long ago.
