Description: The Hallwyl Museum is a former private home, located in the centre of Stockholm, Sweden and built for the wealthy couple Walther and Wilhelmina von Hallwyl, in 1893-1898. The building harbours Wilhelmina von Hallwyl’s large collection of art and antiquities alongside all the everyday objects that she also kept for the future. The von Hallwyls donated the house, including all its inventories, to the Swedish State in 1921.

Wilhelmina von Hallwyl initiated the collection catalogue in 1906 and the work continued during many years, under her strict supervision. It was printed between 1926 and 1956 in around 100 copies and distributed to libraries around the world. 

The catalogue consists of 78 volumes and describes the Hallwyl Collection in words and images. 38 of the volumes are text descriptions, the rest contain images.
