Their painted stories, mostly biblical, decorated the walls and ceilings of many homes. The furniture was usually done in a dark style, large areas of faux finish, to compliment the light style of the decoration on the walls. We can find some historical precedence for the painting of the light style on smaller items, however. I saw a couple of larger bride’s boxes at one museum in central Sweden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A simple palette of toned primary colors is typical combined with faux finishes. Spattering of color was very common, especially on lower wall areas.\u003cbr\u003e The artists usually traveled during the summer, when the roads were passable, to take their orders and then painted during the winter. The items on wall canvasses were delivered the next summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Briar Rose is a fairy tale compiled by the Brothers Grimm.
