Stockholm

Stockholm, definitely one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Big events, tours, magical concerts. Fascinating exhibitions & exciting performing arts, not to mention a fantastic restaurant & café selection. Countless museums & art galleries + beautiful archipelago nature & unique shopping.

Art

I always try to visit a museum or art gallery when traveling. Preferably the great masters who always can be found on one of the floors of the buildings. In addition, museums are generally incredibly beautiful & calming with the large quiet halls & lighting.

Art

We’ve been home in Sweden for a short visit after almost two years of isolation & are now traveling a couple of weeks in Germany before we return home again. We’ve made many visits to various museums. Partly for the art, partly for the architecture (many museum buildings are fantastic) but also for the great silence when you slowly walk around looking & taking in the works. It’s a very calm & soothing environment.

Exhibition

One of the things that’s always on the list when traveling, is to visit a couple of museums. The exhibition at Städel museum in Frankfurt was a wonderful experience & will remain as a precious memory for life.

Edvard Munch – Norwegian painter. His best known work, The Scream, has become one of the iconic images of world art.
Claude Monet – a French painter & founder of impressionist painting who is seen as a key precursor to modernism, especially in his attempts to paint nature as he perceived it.
Helena Schjerfbeck – a Finnish painter. A modernist painter, she is known for her realist works & self-portraits, and also for her landscapes & still lifes.
