Muut tiedot
The Consumers' Association of Stockholm (Kooperativa Förbundet, now Coop) was an important sponsor for the Millesgården Museum and commissioned an edition of 50 copies of "Solglitter" (Naiad and dolphin) in 1997 to commemorate this.
As a monumental sculpture, "Solglitterr" can be found, among other places, in the courtyard of the Swedish Institute in Rome, designed by architect Ivar Tengbom in 1940. The motif exists in different sizes and can also be found in several locations around Sweden, including Millesgården, Vår Gård in Saltsjöbaden, in Västerås, and in Kristianstad.
