Partage Plus

In 2012-2014, the Röhsska Museum participated in the European collaboration project Partage Plus, where 23 different museums and institutions around Europe digitized Art Noveau and Jugend objects to publish them on the Europeana joint web portal. The project was funded by the EU and enabled the museum to digitize most of its Jugend collection. The museum published about 400 items on the European database. In Sweden the Jugend style had its breakthrough in the beginning of the 20th Century. The Swedish variations of Jugend and Art Nouveau, was overall more restrained than in Europe as a whole, because of the National Romantic style which appeared around the same time in Sweden.
