Swedish architect Erik Gunnar Asplund's life (1885-1940) spans the period between neoclassicism, proto-modern eclecticism, and the first stirrings of the modern movement. His first project for the Gothenburg Law Courts (1913), the Enskede Cemetery (begun 1915), the 1920 Woodland Chapel, and the brilliant Lister courthouse (1918-24) were all in this idiom, leading up to the great 1928 Stockholm Library when suddenly he changed his style.
