by F. 0. Wrangel (born 1853), contains local rather than historical art studies;
a monumental work on the Tessin palace in Stockholm was published by him
in 1912. The "Arkitekturminnesföreningen" is publishing, since 1909, "Swedish
Architecture", drawings and measurements of ancient buildings. J. Roosval, who
described in 1903 Flemish altar-pieces in Swedish churches and museums, deals
in a study on Burchard Precht, 1905, with decorative sculpture at the beginning
of the 18th century. N. Sjöberg (1871—1914) has studied Swedish portraiture.

Swedish academy), Per Hörberg by W. Bergsten 1904, Per Krafft, senior, 1898

modern art), 1913; and G. Cederström "Memories", 1913; and G. Pauli "Artist

day), was published in 1912 by J. Roosval. A history of Swedish art in which
several authors collaborated was published in 1913 by him and Romdahl.

classicism. A special place is accorded to the treatment of taste, to the
distinction between true and false taste, and to the causes of differences in taste
