Muut tiedot
During the work on Stockholm's Skogskyrkogården (The Woodland Cemetery), architects Gunnar Asplund and Sigurd Lewerentz had several artists join the project for the decoration. For Asplund's water basin, Anna Petrus designed a lion mask and a water spout shaped like a lion in her characteristic style.
