About the piece

Painted in 1889, this intimate study by Finnish master Albert Edelfelt captures his son, Erik, in a perambulator. The work showcases the artist's masterful adoption of French Impressionism, utilizing loose, expressive brushstrokes and a bright, light-filled palette to create a scene of quiet domestic warmth.
