About the piece
Painted in 1883, this work by Norwegian naturalist Christian Krohg depicts fellow artist Charles Lundh in a relaxed conversation. The composition, with its warm earthy tones and informal pose, exemplifies the intimate realism and light handling characteristic of the Skagen Painters.
