Painting 377
Procession of Charles XII. The artist Cederstrom
never reveled in colors; he used but few and those of
a somber hue. In this case his colors comport well with
the subject of the painting. In other paintings he has
faithfully represented scenes from the time of Charles
George von Rosen’s "Eric XIV."
XII. No other painter has so well as he represented
the silent greatness and manly gravity of the Caro-
linians.
Julius Kronberg, a "poet in colors," is best known
to the children of Sweden for his beautiful Bible pic-
tures. He lent his art as a handmaid to architecture
and is especially well known for his beautiful ceiling
paintings in a number of ’Sweden’s public buildings.
He is also noted as a portrait painter.
