About the piece
Painted in 1877 by Johanne Mathilde Dietrichson, this evocative genre scene demonstrates a masterful command of light and shadow. The work depicts two young boys in rustic dress sharing a cigar, their expressive faces illuminated against a moody, dark background and accompanied by a detailed still life of autumn fruit.
