However, soon I learned that I actually saw a work of art surrounding the king. It was the Swedish artist and landscape architect Monika Gora's piece "See what the king sees".
Later I noticed that she has made similar "installations" in e.g. Malmö and Helsingborg.
Sweden is full of old cities and towns, with statues of royals and other dignitaries. Which means that there is work to do for Gora and other contemporary artists ...
I for my part prefer to look at Charles XI and the rest from the street level:
