Poster with the painting King Gustav Vasa of Sweden Addressing Men from Dalarna in Mora . In the painting from Mora from December 1520, Gustav Vasa urges the valley men to rebel against the Danish client Christian II who then ruled Sweden.
The valley men were less eager to rebel, and Gustav Vasa was then forced to flee towards Sälen to escape Christian II's men who were chasing him. It was a day or so before the valleymen relented and sent a number of men on skis after the fleeing Gustav Vasa to offer their support in Sälen in his rebellion against the Danish king.
Three years later, the Danish king's rule was over and Gustav Vasa was elected the new King of Sweden, and on Midsummer's Day in 1523, Gustav Vasa, who had been elected king at a Riksdag in Strängnäs, marched into the capital. He is celebrated with pomp and circumstance when he rides into the Palace in Stockholm.
The story of Gustav Vasa's escape to Sälen later became the background to today's immensely popular Vasaloppet.

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.
