A fantastic poster with a portrait of Gustav III - king of Sweden from 1771 to 1792. The painting is painted by Lorens Pasch the younger, a Swedish artist, professor and director at the Art Academy from 1773.
Gustav III was an influential monarch who worked to modernize Sweden and strengthen the royal power. Gustav III introduced several reforms, including a ban on torture and the abolition of the nobility's right to impose the death penalty. He was also a great promoter of art and culture, and founded, among other things, the Royal Opera in Stockholm.
Gustav III was also known for his involvement in political conflicts in Europe and led several military campaigns, including against Russia. He was murdered in 1792 by a group of conspirators and succeeded by his son Gustav IV Adolf.
Lorens Pasch was one of the most respected portrait painters in Sweden during the Gustavian period. Through his work as a teacher, he gained great influence for the development of art in Sweden.

We deliver worldwide and always offer free shipping! Depending on which country you are shipping to, the delivery may mean that certain customs fees and taxes are added - there is no duty or tax on deliveries within, for example, the EU, USA or Norway.
The delivery time is normally 1-3 working days within the Nordic region, 2-5 to the rest of Europe and 3-8 working days in other parts of the world. As for canvas paintings, we make them by hand in our factory in Sweden.
The canvas needs to dry before we stretch them on a wooden frame and send them to you. The delivery time for a canvas painting is therefore approximately 7 working days within the Nordic countries, slightly longer to other countries.
If you order from Norway, your order will be delivered with Fedex, to Sweden and other parts of the world with DHL. Your package is normally delivered to your nearest agent!
