About the piece

Painted in 1886 by renowned Norwegian artist Harriet Backer, this piece depicts an interior at Knabberud in Bærum. Backer's signature mastery of light is on full display here, using a palette of sky blues and warm earth tones to create a sense of stillness and presence in a simple rural setting.
