King Gustav I of Sweden, Gustav Vasa, was a central figure in Sweden's history during the transition from the Middle Ages to the early modern era.
Born out of the tragedy of the Stockholm massacre in 1520, where his father and relatives were murdered by the Danish king Christian II, Gustav Vasa became a leading rebel against the Danish occupation. Gathering support from both peasants and nobles, he succeeded in ousting the Danes and was crowned king of an independent Sweden in 1523. His royal reign marked the beginning of the Vasa era and the establishment of a strong monarchy in Sweden.
Gustav Vasa was not only a political leader but also a reformer. During his reign, the Protestant Reformation was carried out in Sweden. By breaking with the Catholic Church and introducing the Lutheran doctrine, he not only changed Sweden's religious landscape but also its cultural and social structure.

We deliver worldwide and always offer free shipping! Depending on which country you are shipping to, the delivery may mean that certain customs fees and taxes are added - there is no duty or tax on deliveries within, for example, the EU, USA or Norway.
The delivery time is normally 1-3 working days within the Nordic region, 2-5 to the rest of Europe and 3-8 working days in other parts of the world. As for canvas paintings, we make them by hand in our factory in Sweden.
The canvas needs to dry before we stretch them on a wooden frame and send them to you. The delivery time for a canvas painting is therefore approximately 7 working days within the Nordic countries, slightly longer to other countries.
If you order from Norway, your order will be delivered with Fedex, to Sweden and other parts of the world with DHL. Your package is normally delivered to your nearest agent!
