About the piece
Painted in 1901 by Bruno Liljefors, this evocative work captures a quiet moment of nature at night. Ducks are nestled within a thicket of reeds, illuminated only by the soft, golden light of a full moon peering through the dark, painterly sky. Liljefors, known for his naturalist depictions of wildlife, here prioritizes atmosphere and the interplay of light and shadow.
