Great glimpse into Swedish history and culture! But much the same red is found in Norwegian farmhouses too. I can imagine that the desire to mimic bricks was a pan-Scandinavian fashion, but where did they get their pigment from ...?

Thank you for the history lesson! When I was younger, I was always told that my mother's grandfather was Danish. I married a Swede and moved to Sweden, only to discover 10 years later, that no, my great grandfather was, in fact, Swedish. He was born and raised in Falun, about 2 hours from where I'd been living for all those years. Curious, I went to visit the town and discovered the mine where I learned that the very common red color used across the Swedish countryside in particular was called Falu Red. This taught me exactly WHY it became so common, which I'd always wondered. I love history, especially the smaller tidbits. :)
@JonFrumTheFirstАй бұрын
When I was a boy, my Swedish grandmother lived with us. She had a picture on her bedroom wall of her childhood home, a two room cabin painted in this red. when I went to Sweden to visit my relatives years later I was brought to the same house - it had become a vacation home. It was surrounded by a large stone wall, which her family had built out of rocks pulled from the ground to make room for gardens to plant food. Ten children in a two room house, with some children sleeping in the rafters.

I painted my lake cabin black and dark green so it would blend into the forest environment. Too many things today try to grab people's attention. I didn't want that for my cabin. The ducks, geese, swans, moose and beavers that live around my pond now pay my cabin no mind and are not put-off by a 'color-conflict' with the surrounding environment. Although I now understand why Swedes would want their cabin red, as a American-Norwegian/Sami, we go by different rules. Thank you for your video. Greetings from America.
