Thielska Galleriet on Postcard

"Fine-Art Classics Located within the walled grounds of Blockhusudden on Djurgården, Thielska Galleriet is a fine art museum with late 19th- to 20th-century works by Eugène Jansson, Carl Larsson, Bruno Liljefors, Edvard Munch, August Strindberg, Anders Zorn, and other leading artists of that era. Characterized by spacious rooms with glass roofs, the museum walls are covered with paintings, and collections include Nietzsche’s death mask and prints by Edvard Munch. It also houses painter Richard Bergh’s extensive archive—letters, notes, drawings, drafts, and photographs."

A delightful gallery featuring Nordic artists. The building itself was a private home designed to contain the owner's art collection. The café on the premises is absolutely fantastic and they serve the best meatballs in Stockholm.

Unbelievable private collection of art in splendid mansion. Highly recommended, especially during summer. And don’t miss perfect lunch place in the garden not far away from water.

Lovely museum with cafe and garden. Has a permanent display and usually a special exhibition of some kind. Has a lot of art; staues, paintings and even the house itself is part of the display. Many bird paintings by Bruno Liljefors. Also houses many Carl Larsson and Eugene Jansson. Worthy of a visit but not for families with younger children.

A pearl of a museum. Got there from the city on boat line 80 and enjoyed waalklinker there in the “countryside” It is a small museum with an amazing art collection.m presented in an old home. Certainly a top Stockholm site not worth missing.

This was a great excuse to get ferry 80 from central Stockholm to travel to the museum. After getting off you can go left or right from the jetty. Going left means you enter via the garden with its lovely Vigeland sculptures, so if you went right, make sure you leave via the garden. No really, you don't want to miss them (but go to Vigeland Park in Oslo before you get too old, you will thank me). Inside is a collection of paintings that is by turn interesting and dull - like most museums. We came for the Carl Larsson (but there is less than I hoped for) and to a lesser extent, the Munch (much less than you expect). But having said that, I still enjoyed the visit. The building is beautiful and calming, the displays and information are good, and the cafe - OMG that cafe was fantastic. Near there is the 'Gravitational Ripple'. Go find it and have a thoughtful moment. So IMHO, yes go and enjoy the water and the serenity and the art and the food. You won't be sorry.
