| On the Avenue of Flags, immediately south of the Illinois Host building is the Swedish Pavilion. An expansive plaza set with marbles and bronzes by Carl Milles, form the approach to the cube shaped yellow building, the simplicity and diginity of which is typical of the trend in Modern Swedish architecture. The building contains a reception hall and a long gallery filled with examples of modern industrial arts, a field wherein Sweden has become justly famous in recent years. Exquisite glass, china, furniture, textiles and metal ware testify to the close cooperation between artist and manufacturer established in this northern country. - Taken from the Official 1933 Chicago World's Fair Guidebook |
