About the piece
Painted in 1856, Christen Dalsgaard’s masterpiece 'Mormons Visiting a Country Carpenter' is a hallmark of the Danish Golden Age. The composition masterfully uses light streaming through a small window to illuminate the workshop's wooden textures and the contemplative expressions of the rural family as they listen to a missionary's address.
