The Taft Museum of Art in Cincinnati will open “The Scandinavian Home: Landscape and Lore” on June 13, with the exhibition running through September 20, 2026. The show presents approximately 75 works from the private collection of Pennsylvania-based collectors David and Susan Werner, which the museum says has not previously been displayed publicly.
Organized by The Frick Pittsburgh, the exhibition includes painting, furniture, ceramics, textiles, metalwork, and works on paper from Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden dating from 1880 to 1920. The works document how ideas of home, landscape, and national identity shaped Nordic art and material culture during a period of cultural change across the four countries.
