This photo is labeled "Stoneworkers, Salt Lake Temple." Hans LARSEN worked on the temple until his death in 1876. In Denmark he was an experienced mariner. He is said to have used those skills to help move the granite blocks into position on the temple walls. That's Hans, front row, last on the right. The other's aren't identified.

"Mormons Visit a County Carpenter" by Christen Dalsgaard. Though the painting was not completed in Copenhagen until 1856, a sketch of it hung in the LARSEN family home in Salt Lake City after they had arrived there in 1853. Family tradition says that members of the family had been the models for individuals in the painting. It is not known what happened to the sketch. |
