Carl Larsson exhibition

Carl Larsson is one of Sweden's most well-known artists and a cherished national symbol. An exhibition at Waldemarsudde, comprises about 100 works including a wide selection of paintings, water colors and drawings from Larsson's time in Grez France as well as from his home in Sundborn.

The exhibition takes place until May 31, 2009

I am a huge fan of Carl Larssons' work & have just been given Stieg Larsson's book The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.I am now wondering if Carl & Stieg are related & if so what is the relationship?

My husband & I visited Sweden a couple of years ago mainly to meet my penfriend of many years & to visit Sundborn.We were thrilled to see Carl's art & visit your beautiful country.My hope is to return & see even more.

Hope you can help with an answer to my question.
