Masreliez had studied in Italy and brought the new ancient finds to Stockholm. The pavilion became a model for the late Gustavian style. It is run by the Royal Djurgården Administration.

Materials: Painted and gilded walls, mirrors, stucco

Manufacture: The walls were decorated with Pompeian motifs and mirrors that enlarge the small rooms.

The mirrors of the Mirror Salon making the room endless.
