Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Venngarn castle, Uppland, Sweden. Wenngarn is mentioned in a letter already in the 1160s - in connection with Sweden's first Archbishop Stefan. Since then, different things have owned the estate and through his grandmother Sigrid Eskilsdotter becomes Gustav Vasa owner in the 1550s. In the early 17th century, Jacob De la Gardie leases the estate and his as Magnus Gabriel De la Gardie buys Wenngarn in 1653 and begins a large rebuilding 1661. Around 1695, when Willem Swidde performed his copper engraving of the Venngarns castle in Suecia Antiqua et Hodierna, the castle had on the courtyard side between the stairwell and the grandchildren arcade gallery and sculpted-soft wooden tents. The facades were originally whitewashed with decorations and details in different stone colors. The decorations around the windows were painted in carbon black and red, the corner chains in gray. Balustrades and sculptures in both wood and stone were also painted gray. The ceiling was clad with red colored shavings. Svenska: Venngarns slott, Uppland, Sverige. Wenngarn nämns i brev redan på 1160-talet - i samband med Sveriges förste ärkebiskop Stefan. Sedan har olika ätter ägt godset och via sin mormor Sigrid Eskilsdotter blir Gustav Vasa ägare på 1550-talet. I början av 1600-talet arrenderar Jacob De la Gardie godset och hans som Magnus Gabriel De la Gardie köper Wenngarn 1653 och börjar en stor ombyggnad 1661. Omkring år 1695, då Willem Swidde utförde sitt kopparstick av Venngarns slott i Suecia Antiqua et Hodierna hade slottet på gårdssidan mellan trapphuset och flyglarna arkadgalleri och skulptursmyckade träaltaner. Fasaderna var ursprungligen vitkalkade med dekorationer och detaljer i olika stenfärger. Dekorationerna runt fönstren var målade i kimröksgrått och rött, hörnkedjorna i grått. Även balustrader och skulpturer i såväl trä som sten var gråmålade. Taket var klätt med rödfärgad spån. |
