About the piece

Painted in 1907 by Norwegian artist Thorvald Erichsen, this expressive work captures a quiet moment of correspondence. The composition is defined by bold, rhythmic brushstrokes and a saturated color palette that balances deep moody purples with luminous pinks and yellows, featuring a charming blue toy horse in the foreground.
