About the piece

Painted in 1897, this evocative work by Eugène Jansson captures the twilight atmosphere of Stockholm's Kornhamnstorg. Known as the 'blue painter,' Jansson uses a rhythmic, swirling brush technique to blend the silhouettes of docked ships with the shimmering reflections of city lights, creating a dreamlike and contemplative nocturnal landscape.
