Franska influenser

Det franska inflytandet på 1700-talets Sverige var omfattande. Hovet och samhällseliten anammade språket, mode och manér. Kung Gustav III:s frankofili inspirerade också Sveriges neoklassiska gustavianska möbler och arkitekturstil. Fransk teater och opera blomstrade under hans beskydd. Vi har historien.
