Absolutely
recommended
-
the
highlight
of
my
trip
to
Uppsala
🇸🇪
-
I
have
never
been
to
such
an
authentic,
homely
and
cosy
home-turned
museum,
so
cosy
as
if
Bror
Hjorth
may
be
returning
home
anytime.
As
if
my
visit
is
an
invasion
of
his
privacy.
They
hardly
changed
anything
in
his
house,
not
just
where
the
furniture
and
books
were
placed,
but
also
where
he
positioned
his
paintings
and
sculptures.
Here
I
am,
having
just
my
shoes
covered
in
protection,
in
where
he
used
to
paint,
rest
and
eat.
That
experience
is
strangely
intimate.
Another
lovely
surprise
is
how
violin
was
a
central
object
in
plenty
of
his
works.
I
learnt
from
the
museum
workers
that
he
grew
up
surrounded
by
fiddlers
and
local
music
in
the
Älvkarleby
municipality.
It
goes
without
saying
that
he
liked
the
instrument
and
certainly
enjoyed
being
around
fiddlers
but
I
was
pretty
certain
he
played
the
violin
himself
-
this
has
been
confirmed
after
spotting
the
few
broken
violin
bows
at
the
corner
of
his
studio.
He
also
owned
a
baroque
violin
bow
🎻💙
Also
a
big
shoutout
to
the
team
there
❤️
the
friendliest,
most
hospitable
and
loveliest
people
I
have
ever
met
at
a
museum.
The
museum
itself
is
great
enough
and
the
staffs
make
the
experience
so
much
better!
